Vale to relinquish mining prospect rights on Brazil's indigenous lands

  • Vale ( Vale ) says it gives up all rights to mining prospects on indigenous lands in Brazil, including applications for exploration permits and mining concessions, noting they require consent of communities and legislation regulating such activity.
  • Vale says it has returned to the National Mining Agency 89 licenses for mineral research and mining activities this year in lands that interfere with indigenous reservations, and will file withdrawals and waivers for another 15 prospects in the coming days.
  • Separately, Bank of America 's Jason Fairclough downgrades Vale to Hold from Buy with a $20 price target, cut from $27, citing disappointing economic growth in China and the government's steel policies that are forcing capacity reductions at steel mills.
  • The combination will drive a "major [ore] price correction," Fairclough says, cutting his 2022 iron ore price forecast to $91/metric ton with potential downside to $80.
  • Iron ore prices in China have plunged ~60% from a record above $230/ton in May, tumbling well below $100/ton earlier this week.
