MBE-CMT News Update: Global Teams - Belo Horizonte

Mining fair in Brazil

September is a very important month for MBE do Brazil. Between September 26 and 29, the international mining exposition EXPOSIBRAM 2011 will be held in Belo Horizonte, the capital of the Brazilian mining state Minas Gerais.

MBE has participated at the fair twice but this first time that MBE will be locally represented by its Brazilian entity, MBE Processamento Mineral do Brasil Ltda. In May 2011, the world’s largest iron ore producer VALE awarded MBE a contract for the supply of basic & detailed engineering for a complete iron ore pilot flotation plant with a capacity of 400 t/h. Furthermore, spare parts business for the PALLA vibrating mill is slowly developing and we are very keen to have the JONES magnetic separators re-introduced to the Brazilian market.

As MBE do Brasil we are focusing our activities on pneumatic flotation, magnetic separation and ultrafine milling projects with its key equipment PNEUFLOT, JONES, PERMOS and PALLA.

A feedback on the EXPOSIBRAM and an outlook for new opportunities will be provided shortly.
