Even with the rise of corporations from the most varied sectors in the Brazilian scenario, the mining industry is present in several points in the country, regarded in international lands as one of the main extracting poles for iron, bauxite, manganese, and niobium, among others.

And aiming to push this economic segment forward, Folks Group took one more leap in its activity by setting up partnerships with renowned mining companies nation-wide in order to trade - in both internal and external markets - such ores as:

• Kaolin
• Quartz
• Feldspar
• Mica
• Tantalum
• Graphite

Actually, Folks Group goes beyond simply representing these suppliers and backs up Miners' Cooperatives from several regions, taking there its most assertive forms of importing and exporting in distant routes; and all that with quality certification, backed up by environmental bodies and the DNPM - National Department for Mineral Production.

Folks Group aims to encompass all the segments calling for the use of ores in some phase of their production, such as: industries of paint, paper, pottery, abrasives and technical pottery, water filters, load for high-integration micro-circuits, electronic products, mortar, concrete, china, floors and coating, fiberglass, rock wool, abrasives (grindstones and sandpapers), sand-jet, fuses and electric resistance, optical and scientific devices, fluxing (glass manufacturing), silica bricks, and in the Special Steel alloy.

All ore acquisition processes are assisted by a team specializing in global sourcing and foreign trade so as to ensure signing the best contracts for your corporation, taking into account quotation fluctuations, analyses, and document preparation, among other indispensable details in the operation.

From the very first contact, the client may enjoy individualized consulting, in an approach compatible to his expectations, criteria, and objectives. Folks Group ensures thorough execution of all phases needed to settle partnerships, and is ready to keep the process in follow up - that is, accompanying it with transparence.
