Currently the company produces 60% of iron ore using natural moisture processing. However, by 2024, from the production using wet processing (30%), 16% will have filtered and dry-stacked tailings. Only 14% will continue using the conventional method with wet concentration and tailings disposal in dams or deactivated extraction sites.

Iron ore extraction is mainly performed through open pit mining operations, resulting in significant tailings generation. The iron ore production system usually involves three stages: mining, processing and pelletizing activities. Of these, processing ensures that an adequate iron grade and chemistry is achieved prior to the pelletizing stage.
