Horizonte Minerals is a nickel-focused mining company that operates as a junior development player and is listed on AIM and the TSX. Based in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil, it maintains a relatively small workforce and concentrates on advancing targeted nickel assets. The centerpiece of its development program is the Araguaia project, designed to produce ferronickel for the stainless-steel industry. In 2017 Horizonte acquired Vale's Vermelho nickel project, located in Pará state about 85 kilometers from Araguaia, expanding its asset base. The company plans to operate two mines—Araguaia for ferro-nickel and Vermelho for nickel and cobalt for the electric battery market—forming a coordinated development approach in Brazil.
