First half year

Valuing Maranh?o’s culture also means valuing the people who keep it alive and strong.

In this edition, we share initiatives by the 乐播传媒 Cultural Institute to preserve and strengthen this theme via the Cultural Incentive Law.

Among other projects, we ran an exhibition called “An Overview of the S?o Luís World Heritage Site,” marking the 25th anniversary of the historic downtown’s status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Pelletizing Plant

The S?o Luís Pelletizing Plant resumed its operations in 2018 and is part of the Ponta da Madeira Complex. Here, part of the iron ore (pellet feed) that arrives from the mines in 笔补谤á goes through a thermal processing technology that uses the fines generated during extraction. 

This process results in pellets, small balls of iron ore used to manufacture steel. The S?o Luís plant has a capacity of 7 million tonnes per year and has 380 employees dedicated to the activity.
