Brazilian miner Vale has regained its permit to operate in the city of Congonhas, in Minas Gerais state, after meeting the requirements set by local authorities, the city government said in a statement on Wednesday.

Operations at Vale’s Fabrica and Viga mines were halted in January after a water overflow. It is unclear whether the firm can resume operations as the Minas Gerais state government had also suspended activities at the mines.
Vale did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
