Brazilian miner Vale said on Tuesday that firefighters employed by the company have extinguished a fire that hit an auxiliary tower at its maritime terminal Ponta da Madeira, located in northeastern Brazil.
In a statement to Reuters, Vale said the fire did not impact its schedule for iron ore shipments nor the volumes of the steelmaking material it expects to ship out.
