The Voisey’s Bay mine, in Labrador, Canada, is gearing up to resume operations, following a three-month shutdown associated with the Covid-19 outbreak.
Brazil’s Vale announced on Thursday that it had moved from care and maintenance into a planned maintenance period at Voisey’s Bay as a first step to resuming operations in early July. This includes restarting critical path activities related to the Voisey’s Bay mine expansion project.
Full capacity should be reached by early August, the major added.
