Vale board members in a ‘state of war’ over CEO succession — report
Last week, consulting firm Russell Reynolds delivered a list of 15 potential successors for Eduardo Bartolomeo.
The court of the state of Minas Gerais is releasing $48 million reais ($10.4 million) to iron ore miner Vale (NYSE: VALE) to fund the technical consultancy that will determine the losses caused by the collapse of a tailings dam in Brumadinho in January 2019.
In March 2019, a Brazilian court ordered Vale to freeze 1 billion reais (about $260 million) in funds as compensation for affected communities following the January dam disaster at the company’s Corrego do Feijão mine, which left at about 300 people dead
G1 reported Thursday that the $10.4 million is part of the $1 billion blocked since last year.
Vale is analyzing the decision in detail and will comment further at a later date, the company said in an email to MINING.COM.
