VALE research

Overview

Company profile and research snapshot.

Company profile

Vale is a large global miner and the world's largest producer of iron ore and pellets. In recent years the company has sold noncore assets such as its fertilizer, coal, and steel operations to concentrate on iron ore, nickel, and copper. Earnings are dominated by the bulk materials division, primarily iron ore and iron ore pellets. The base metals division is much smaller, consisting of nickel mines and smelters along with copper mines producing copper in concentrate. In 2024, Vale sold a minority 10% stake in energy transition metals, its base metals business, likely the first step in separating base metals and iron ore.

Iron Ore Prices Should be Higher, Vale CEO Says

Vale CEO Gustavo Pimenta says iron ore prices should be "a little higher" as surging energy and freight costs make about 10% of global seaborne supply unprofitable. Iron ore futures in Singapore fell below $90 a ton this week for the first time in two years and are down about 15% in 2026. Speaking on "The Pulse With Francine Lacqua", Pimenta discussed Chinese demand, rising mining costs and what Brazil's presidential election outcome could mean for the country's mining sector.
