J&F Mining is now called Lhg Mining
We are proud to announce that J&F Mining is now called Lhg Mining. A change that reflects the major transformation the company has undergone in the last two years. We are rapidly expanding our team and our production. Many investments are being made in operation, logistics and management. Like all J&F Group companies, the mining business now has its own name. Our new brand emphasizes our excellence, highlighting the quality and benefits of our flagship product: high-grade iron ore granulate. Or Lump High Grade. This new chapter strengthens our connection with our stakeholders, highlighting the competitive differentials that come from our mineral reserves and the daily effort of each one of us to be the best at what we set out to do.
Founded in 1953, J&F Group is the largest privately-held Brazilian enterprise and the parent company of JBS, the world largest producer of animal protein. Lhg Mining is the group’s first initiative in the mining industry, following the acquisition of MCR (Mineração Corumbaense Reunida) in July, 2022. The company owns two mines in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul in Brazil, with vast reserves of high-grade iron ore and manganese ore. Its natural lump ore’s quality positions Lhg Mining as one of the best existing alternative source in the world for the production of green steel. The company has a lean structure with more than 2,500 employees, a private port, and an integrated mining & logistics system.
