Ero Copper Corp (NYSE: ERO) is a Canada-based natural resource company focused on the production of copper concentrate from its Brazilian operations. The company’s flagship asset is the Vale do Curaçá mining complex in the state of Bahia, which includes multiple underground mines and a centralized processing facility. Ero Copper’s primary product is copper concentrate, which is sold to smelters and end users around the world.
The Vale do Curaçá complex comprises the Pilar and Surubim underground mines, supported by a fully integrated processing plant. The operation uses conventional longhole stoping and paste backfill methods to extract copper ore, which is then crushed, ground and subjected to flotation to produce a high-grade concentrate. Ero Copper continues to invest in exploration on its existing land packages, targeting both near-mine and district-scale discoveries to extend mine life and support future growth.
The company was originally established as Brasil Resources Inc. in 2014 and acquired its Bahia copper assets from Vale S.A. in 2017. In 2020, it rebranded as Ero Copper Corp to reflect its focus on copper production. Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Ero Copper maintains a corporate office in São Paulo to oversee Brazilian operations and exploration activities.
David F. Strang serves as President and Chief Executive Officer, leading a management team with deep experience in mining project development and operations. Under its current leadership, Ero Copper emphasizes sustainable mining practices, community engagement in Bahia, and continued exploration to unlock the full potential of its Brazilian copper portfolio.
