Brazil miner Samarco says resuming operations this year challenging

Brazilian iron ore miner Samarco Mineração believes resuming operations this year will be challenging, though there remains a small possibility, Roberto de Carvalho, CEO, told Reuters on Tuesday.

The company, which halted operations in November 2015 after a dam burst, said talks are continuing with the government to obtain the required environmental licences.
