Ero Copper Corp. has made a groundbreaking announcement with the signing of a definitive earn-in agreement with Salobo Metais S.A, a subsidiary of Vale Base Metals Limited, to earn a 60% interest in the Furnas Copper Project located in Brazil. This agreement marks a significant milestone for Ero and solidifies its position as a high-margin, high-growth, low carbon-intensity copper producer.
The terms of the Agreement align with a previously signed binding term sheet, indicating a strategic move for both Ero and Salobo Metais S.A. The Furnas Copper Project, located in the Carajás Mineral Province in Pará State, Brazil, offers promising opportunities for the future of copper production.
