Envoy urges SA, Brazil to share ideas on improving mining

With the mining sector having played a significant role in the history and development of South Africa and Brazil, it is “natural and appropriate” that the two countries come together to discuss and exchange ideas about how to improve the mining sector in both countries, says Ambassador of Brazil Nedilson Jorge. Speaking at a seminar hosted by the Embassy of Brazil, in Johannesburg, last month – during which perspectives relating to the two countries’ mining and legal frameworks were shared by industry stakeholders – he emphasised that the government of Brazil was committed to continuing proposing measures to encourage the growth of its mining industry.
