Vale to produce up to 335Mt of iron-ore in 2025

Vale said on Tuesday it expects to produce between 325-million and 335-million metric tons of iron-ore in 2025, following an output of about 328-million tons this year.

The Brazilian company reiterated it expects to keep increasing iron-ore output in the coming years, estimating it to reach between 340-million and 360-million tons in 2026 and about 360-million tons in 2030.

Vale said it has started commissioning the so-called Capanema project at its Mariana complex, aiming to add about 15-million tons a year of iron-ore, "an important milestone towards achieving the iron-ore production guidance in 2026."
