With all this purpose, Appian Capital Brazil, a private investment fund specialized in mining, advances with even more management style that brings results from smart mining, and closes the year 2022 with record results in exports.
There are more than 198,290 tons of copper and sulfide nickel that were shipped to Canada, China, Finland, and Poland. This volume is 66% higher than the same period in 2021, when exports totaled around 119,334 tons.
Since this British-origin fund, with nearly 4 years of operation in our Brazilian market, took over all the management of the assets Atlantic Nickel and Mineração Vale Verde (MVV). “We are very pleased with the results achieved throughout 2022. Through our smart mining model, we managed to increase production safely and responsibly. The numbers demonstrate our growth trajectory. With this, we will certainly have more prominence in the international market in 2023,” explains the CFO of Appian Capital Brazil, Milson Mudim.
