About Ero Copper Corp.
Overview
Ero Copper Corp. is a base metals mining company with operations in Brazil focused on copper production with gold and silver by-product credits. The company operates high-grade copper mines in the Carajás mineral province and Bahia state, positioning it as Brazil's second-largest copper producer. Ero Copper is known for exploration success and rapid development capabilities in challenging jurisdictions.
Operations
Ero Copper operates the MCSA Mining Complex in Bahia state (including the Pilar and Vermelhos mines) and the Tucumã mine in Pará state within the Carajás mineral district. The company produces approximately 75-85 million pounds of copper annually along with gold and silver credits. Operations benefit from high-grade underground deposits and established infrastructure in historic mining regions.
Strategy
The company's strategy emphasizes aggressive exploration to grow reserves and resources, rapid development of new deposits through internal expertise, operational excellence to maintain low-cost production, expanding production through organic growth projects, and capitalizing on Brazil's mining-friendly environment and copper supply deficit. Ero Copper targets high-grade deposits amenable to underground mining.
Key Projects
Major projects include expansion of the Tucumã mine complex with development of multiple high-grade deposits in the Carajás region, advancement of the Furnas copper-gold project (recently discovered), potential mill expansion at MCSA to accommodate growing production, and extensive exploration across the company's land packages. Ero Copper has demonstrated consistent exploration success discovering new deposits and extending known mineralization.
