*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Morro Agudo is comprised of the Morro Agudo underground mine and the new (since May 2017) Ambrosia Sul mine and a 3.1kt/d ore plant (2017 capacity). In the future the plan is to offset the declining ore production by developing other satellite mines. The Morro Agudo mine-mill is located 45km south of the Paracatu municipality and the Ambrosia trend deposits 15-20 km northwest of Paracatu. The zinc concentrate is treated in the Tres Marias smelter located 220km away from the mine. The mine was closed in 2024, transitioning to a limestone production complex only.
