SUGAR LAND--July 25, 2017--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Vale S.A. reported record iron ore production for second-quarter 2017, driven largely by significant progress at its Serra Sul (a.k.a. S11D) mine in Brazil. But the company's 91.85 million tonnes produced, almost half of which was in a single Brazilian state, may be contributing to a global glut in production that doesn't seem to be helping iron ore prices. Industrial Info is tracking more than $20 billion in active projects involving Vale.
