Feasibility Study
Brazil Iron are currently completing a Feasibility Study based upon the following project configuration.
of green direct reduction grade pellet feed
of green direct reduction pellets
of hot briquetted iron (briquetted direct reduction iron)
The fundamental demand for iron and steel is set for the foreseeable future on the basis of the continued population growth and high rates of urbanisation. In order to deliver the required steel in a sustainable way, without emitting co2 into the atmosphere, substantially increased production of direct reduction iron products is required. This requires a significant number of new direct reduction grade iron ore mines, as well as the transition of existing sinter feed producing mines into direct reduction grade pellet feed operations where the geology allows.
Our world-class iron ore deposits (itabirite) will be beneficiated using magnetic separation and flotation at the mine site. The process will produce a 68% Fe concentrate using 100% renewable electricity. The production of direct reduction green pellets and HBI will occur in the port complex using renewable electricity, green hydrogen and bio-methane.
Brazil Iron intend to become the first integrated producer of green pellet feed, pellets and HBI, with net-zero carbon emissions.
Building the world’s first net-zero carbon emission integrated green pellet feed, pellet and HBI operation. 100% renewable energy, green hydrogen and direct reduction iron ore.
Our goal is to become global leaders in decarbonising the iron and steel industry. We are uniquely positioned to develop a new VRO C02 operation, with all processes and logistics running on…
