The initiative, which has been developed since last year with representatives from the sector, includes over one hundred goals in ten areas of concentration in mining for the period of 2020 to 2023.

The Minister of Mines and Energy, Bento Albuquerque, who was also present at the program launch ceremony alongside President Jair Bolsonaro, stated that Brazil is a mineral powerhouse and that mining can be the great driver of the country’s economic recovery. “Mining is one of the great forces of the Brazilian economy, an important vector of progress and synonymous with its development for the promotion of everyone’s well-being,” he said.

Mining Sector in Brazil

Only in July of this year, Brazil extracted 88 types of minerals from its subsoil, reflecting the broad and diverse mineral wealth the country possesses.

Iron ore, in the last eight months, ranked second in Brazil’s total exports, with US$ 14.2 billion. The Brazilian Mining Institute estimates that investments in new projects in the sector will reach US$ 37 billion by 2024.

About the Program

The Mining and Development Program features over 100 goals, divided into ten areas of thematic concentration, and aims to define guidelines for Brazil’s mineral sector. The areas of concentration that make up the program are:

Qualifying Economic Knowledge About the Mineral Sector;
Socio-Economic-Environmental Commitment in Mining;
Expanding Geological Knowledge;
Advancement of Mining in New Areas;
Investment in the Mineral Sector;
Selectivity of Actions for the Sector;
Governance in Mining;
Management and Efficiency;

About the Program

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

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.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

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.

Leila Pereira’s mansion, president of Palmeiras, draws attention for its luxury, sophisticated finishes, and tribute to the club, while the value of R$ 90 million surrounds the property with curiosity.

It seems like fiction, but it has already been created: a tire made from rice, sunflower oil, and natural resins promises to last up to 500,000 km, while another airless concept was born with the proposal of being infinitely renewable.

Few people know this, but a new type of brick created by students does not require high temperatures, uses human urine in the process, hardens in a few days, and also helps reduce pollution generated by the construction industry.

British tourist pays nearly R$ 10,000 for kebab in Copacabana and scandal reveals shocking scheme of scams against foreigners on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro.

Scientists discover unexpected climate benefit hidden in forest soils related to atmospheric methane absorption.

It’s not Argentina, Brazil, or Chile: this is the country that will grow the most in South America in 2026 with an impressive increase of 16.2% and progress well above the global average.

Brazil will arm armies in 148 countries with a new model that transforms the government into a guarantor of mega international military contracts, expanding power and exports in the defense sector.

A proposal that targets less than 0.001% of the population could unlock up to $24 billion per year in Latin America, and the detail behind this calculation is noteworthy.

Forgotten money: Brazilians still have R$ 10.55 billion to receive, and now it is possible to redeem it automatically via Pix with just a few steps.
