Our commitment to protecting the environment permeates the way we operate. This edition highlights our efforts to protect the Amazon.
The Carajás Forest Mosaic is an example of how we coexist in a balanced way with the biodiversity that surrounds us. Approximately 60% of all Vale’s iron ore comes from this region, despite the fact that our operations only occupy 2% of the area.
Thanks to investments in technology, we are achieving increasingly sustainable mining.
In the full report you can see how we are achieving this goal through initiatives and partnerships.

Carajás National Forest
Since 1985, when Vale started its operations in Carajás, we have helped take care of the Carajás National Forest, one of the richest regions in Brazil and in the world in terms of biodiversity. Our concession area covers approximately 411 thousand hectares of preserved forest and we occupy only 1.4% of this amount.
