HB TAMBAQUI Bulk Carrier passed by and now heading up stream...
FORESTAL GAIA still in port.... Should have sailed by now..
MIEDWIE.... Still parked in the overflow
No problem @Bannor. Looks like @tomcat is on the job as well - if only we had someone on the ground we'd have all bases covered! :-)
Ah OK -apologies I'd missed it .... if it's a firm booking I really think it's be beneficial to have it announced ....
That's one of the reasons why I posted it last night as I thought you might be interested to know they dates had apparently slipped since your post in the afternoon.

Don't know about that.... I posted it yesterday as well when the schedule was indicated as the 1st & 5th Aug .... so it's slipped 4 days since yesterday....
You finally filtered me @Bannor? LoL. I noted that last night and did wonder if some of today's sells were off the back of it.
Whe're I'm looking a vessel notated for DEV is now showing ETA 05th Aug ETS 09th Aug .... so pushed back further again....

That large building on the bottom left is a plywood factory, and you can see stacks of lumber just above, I going for wood chips.
Great find @pgal! Figure 9 on page 18 confirms our deductions about the location of the "Area de Armazenagens de Minerios" which translates as "Mineral Storage Area" or "Ore Storage Area"

@Y1101284 Can you see that the google maps links I provided earlier (and the zoom one) truncate at the first comma meaning when you click them they go to the wrong page. I resorted to using tinyurl to create a link to the location shown. LSE need to allow for commas in links. Example from earlier:
https://www.google.com/maps/@-0.0607,-51.16732,445m/data=!3m1!1e3

Hopefully that is clearer?
Ob.
These images from 2016 show it was an iron ore area. The PDF says whats what
