Technology In Favor Of Innovation And Safety In Mining – Vale’s Reinforcement Work On The Macacos Dam In MG Has Services Executed By Unmanned Dump Trucks.

Testing began in November through Vale for the implementation of two off-road trucks at the Carajás mine for mining services. The innovation is accompanied by development and training actions for mining professionals in the region. In autonomous operations, the trucks are controlled by computer systems, GPS, radars, and artificial intelligence, and monitored by operators in control rooms kilometers away from the operations where the trucks are, which brings even more safety to the activities.

When detecting potential risks, the trucks completely stop their mining or related activities until the path is cleared. The safety system sensors are capable of detecting both larger objects, such as big rocks and other trucks in their path, as well as humans who may be in their route.

“It is another advance that brings social, environmental, and economic gains, reduces the exposure of employees to risks, increases competitiveness, reduces the emission of polluting gases, and also promotes the training and evolution of professional skills, following a natural trend currently experienced in the market worldwide.” Said Antônio Padovezi.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

Market owner pretends to ring up products at the register for 4 years to help a woman in need without exposing her situation.

Starlink Mini for R$ 800 on promotion and R$ 235 per month works well for watching, browsing, and working, but those who need to send large files find that the upload speed does not keep up in practice.

Iran declared that the security of the Persian Gulf will be for everyone or for no one — and threatened to attack ports of neighboring countries after the U.S. blockade in the Strait of Hormuz.

Chinese automaker patents a toilet hidden inside the car seat that can be activated by voice command and promises to meet the needs of those stuck in traffic for hours or traveling long distances.

The BRICS Bank releases an additional 2.5 billion reais for Brazil, raising the total invested in the country to 7 billion dollars since 2015 in railways, renewable energy, sanitation, and urban mobility.
