Lula trata minerais cr�ticos como novo pr�-sal, e governo avalia entrada de BNDES e Petrobras em empresas do setor

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's administration is considering a new approach to increase state involvement in mining, particularly focusing on critical minerals. In a meeting at the Planalto Palace, Lula and his team deliberated on involving BNDESPar and Petrobras to bolster this initiative, along with establishing credit lines for exploration research. This move underscores the government's intent to leverage Brazil's natural resources for economic growth, mirroring the successful "pré-sal" model from offshore oil. The strategy signals a significant policy shift aimed at enhancing national self-sufficiency and economic resilience in the face of global supply chain disruptions.
