Vale SA said on Friday it has begun the process of increasing iron ore production at the Timbopea site, part of its Mariana complex in Minas Gerais, Brazil.
In a securities filing, Vale said iron ore production capacity at the site should return to 12 million tonnes a year once the commissioning period is over, which it says should last two months.
