ABOUT US
The Company
Aethel Mining is a private multinational technology-based mining company. Aethel Mining operates the iron ore concession in Torre de Moncorvo, Portugal. This asset is the second largest iron deposit in Europe and Aethel Mining’s most important resource.
Strategy
Our strategy is to create value for all our stakeholders. Community, innovation and sustainability drive our value creation.
History
Aethel Mining Portugal, SA (previously MTI – Ferro de Moncorvo, S.A.) began its exploration activity in Portugal in 2005, and its operations in Moncorvo commenced in 2020.
Moncorvo's iron deposits have been the subject of primitive exploitation since the Iron Age, with industrialised mining activity beginning in the 1790s. From 1957, consolidated operations began to be managed by the Thyssen group, under the banner of Minacorvo, Lda. Following the Portuguese revolution in 1974, Minacorvo was dissolved and its concessions were integrated into Ferrominas SARL and later Ferrominas EP. Circa 2 million tons of iron ore were exported from Moncorvo in the 60’s and 70’s before operations ceased due to uncertainties in the local business environment.
Æ
Aethel Mining has three core values that drive its value creation: Community, Innovation and Sustainability.
Community
At Aethel Mining, we know that each project is only as strong as the community where it operates. We must grow together, learn together and care together.
Through community engagement, we understand the priorities and strengths of the regions where we invest and operate. By working together with local government, employees and other members of the community, we build the foundations for long term success.
Innovation
The heart of our business is technology. Through adoption of industry best practices and our own in-house innovation efforts, Aethel Mining is leading the way into next generation of natural resources stewardship.
Sustainability
Aethel Mining’s commitment to sustainability grows from its other two core values: being part of a community means caring about the future, and leading innovation means having the tools to build a better future. Aethel Mining is committed to environmental conservation, reducing waste through operational efficiency and minimizing our carbon footprint through world-leading logistics practices.
