8th March 2022 By: Reuters

Brazilian miner Vale said on Monday that the train circulation in its Carajas iron-ore mine railroad was temporarily halted due to a land movement caused by heavy rains.

The incident did not cause any casualties and Vale expects to conclude maintenance on the railroad by Wednesday and resume the train circulation.

Vale added that the incident will have minimal impact on its output and it will not change its production guidance for the year.
