Transforming mineral wealth with responsibility and sustainability is what Brazil Paraiba Mine does. The company is located in the Mulungu Site, in the city of Parelhas, Rio Grande do Norte state. It is in this place where there is the largest Paraiba Tourmaline mine on the planet.
In the 1980’s, the discovery of a deep and bright blue stone changed the history forever. Its unparalleled and unseen color caused great curiosity and enchantment in the gemological and jewelry world. To know what it was about is needed. This mission was entrusted to the respected GIA (Gemological Institute of America), which in 1989 carried out rigorous studies and tests to define that new material that was widely spoken. In the end, they realized that this was indeed a new and surprising discovery. The Paraiba Tourmaline.
Brazil Paraiba Mine specializes in the production of Paraiba Tourmaline obtained exclusively in the Mulungu Site, with all legal, labor and environmental certification, producing gems of the highest provenance, with respect to people and the environment.
Mining activity is one of the most important branches of economic and industrial development in a country. Like all productive demands, a series of care and procedures are essential, requiring rigorous strategic planning and an integrated and participatory management model, in order to promote the necessary balance for the maintenance of the ecosystem as well as its population.
