Description
We are **ERO**, a mining company born in the heart of Brazil and grown to deliver greater strength and energy to the world — strength that drives productive sectors and contributes to the development of diverse regions.
Since 1979, when it began operations at the Caraíba unit, the company has consolidated its presence in Brazil’s mineral sector, expanding to the gold mine in Xavantina and advancing implementation of the Tucumã unit — recognized as one of the country’s leading copper production hubs.
