Civil Engineering students from Athens, Brazil visited Paracatu where they were given a tour of the mine, waste management facility and the nursery facility which supplies native seedlings to the Paracatu community.
The student’s favourite part of the trip was visiting the training simulator, where they had an opportunity to operate the large machines at the mine through simulation.
Paracatu regularly hosts visitors to the mine – from local community groups interested in seeing how the mine works to students from all over Brazil.
