We use technology to redesign our ways of working. We eliminate risk scenarios to become a benchmark in safety and risk management. 

We have a complete view of the value chain and we are integrated with our customers to create differentiated products and services. 

Teams collaborate remotely, creating a more accessible environment and attracting a more diverse workforce. 

We seek to transform people and digitize processes through new ways of working, promoting agility, collaboration and integration. 

Renewable energies drive our business, we will develop and use new mining and processing technologies to promote sustainable development, reducing carbon emissions, promoting reforestation and accelerating socio-environmental technologies.  

We innovate in a collaborative and shared way, contributing to the sustainable development of our businesses and communities, generating a positive impact on society.
