IVale, umvukuzi waseBrazil, ugqibe ekubeni ayeke ukumba umgodi wesinyithi waseFazendao kwilizwe laseMinas Gerais emva kokuba uphelelwe zizixhobo ezinelayisenisi zokuqhubeka nokumba kwindawo leyo. Umgodi waseFazendao uyinxalenye yesityalo saseMariana esikumzantsi-mpuma weVale, esivelise iitoni zesinyithi ezili-11.296 lezigidi ngo-2019, zehle ngama-57.6 eepesenti ukusuka ngo-2018. Abathathi-nxaxheba kwimarike bacinga ukuba umgodi, oyinxalenye yesityalo saseMariana, unomthamo wonyaka omalunga nesigidi esinye ukuya kwezi-2 zeetoni.

IVale ithe iza kuzama ukwandisa imigodi emitsha engekafumani layisenisi kwaye isasaze abasebenzi bemigodi ngokweemfuno zokusebenza. Kodwa isicelo seVale semvume yokwandisa saliwe ziingcali zasekuhlaleni eCatas Altas ekupheleni kukaFebruwari, batsho abathathi-nxaxheba kwimarike.

UVale uthe kungekudala uza kubamba indibano yoluntu ukuze azise le projekthi yokwandisa imisebenzi kwezinye iimayini ezingekafumani layisenisi.

Omnye umrhwebi waseTshayina uthe ukuthengiswa okubuthathaka kwisityalo saseMariana kubangele ukuba i-vale ifudusele umbane kwezinye iimayini, ngoko ke ukuvalwa kwemigodi akunakwenzeka ukuba kube nefuthe elikhulu.

Omnye umrhwebi waseTshayina uthe: “Indawo yemigodi isenokuba ivaliwe okwethutyana kwaye iindawo ezigciniweyo zaseMalaysia zingasebenza njengesithintelo de sibone naluphi na ukuphazamiseka kokuthunyelwa kweBRBF.”

Ukususela nge-24 kaFebruwari ukuya kutsho nge-1 kaMatshi, izibuko laseTubarao kumazantsi eBrazil lithumele ngaphandle malunga ne-1.61 yezigidi zeetoni ze-iron ore, elona lizwe lithunyelwa ngaphandle kakhulu ngeveki ukuza kuthi ga ngoku ngo-2020, ngenxa yemozulu engcono yemvula, ngokutsho kwedatha yokuthumela ngaphandle ebonwe yi-platts.
