Brazilian court clears BHP, Vale and Samarco of charges in 2015 dam disaster
A court in Belo Horizonte ruled that state prosecutors failed to prove that "individual actions" directly contributed to the collapse of the dam.
Brazilian miner Vale SA said on Friday it is in advanced talks to sell the companies that compose its Center-West system.
The companies, which produce iron ore and manganese ore, accounted for $110 million in adjusted EBITDA in 2021.
The potential sale is in line with Vale’s strategy to focus on core businesses and growth opportunities, the miner said in a securities filing.
