  • The report examines the regulatory gap between industrial mining and 'garimpeiro' (artisanal) mining in Brazil, specifically focusing on how cooperatives exploit legal protections meant for low-income individuals. It argues that Presidential Decrees 10,965/2022 and 10,966/2022 further incentivize this by simplifying licensing and providing support programs for small-scale mining without restricting the size or nature of the activity. Data shows that some garimpeiro cooperatives in the Amazon hold larger active mining areas than the industrial giant Vale, suggesting that these entities operate at an industrial scale while avoiding the strict preliminary research and environmental requirements of mining concessions.
