"Horizonte has been active in Brazil for four years under the leadership of CEO Jeremy Martin, chairman David Hall and operations director Nick Winer, all of whom have wide experience of working in the region. Like Hall’s other AIM listed mining interest Stratex International (LON:STI) , Horizonte set out to identify exploration targets and then bring in mining partners to drive them through to production. Earlier this year that strategy was rewarded with a major deal with Canadian giant Teck Resources (TSE: TCK), which swapped its Araguaia nickel operation for a 50% stake in Horizonte. The result, the companies hope, will be a 100m ton resource formed from Araguaia and Horizonte’s nearby Lontra nickel project, with grades comparable to other world class projects in Brazil. Drilling there is now under way. "
