following: (a) the countries where we operate, especially Brazil and Canada; (b) the global
economy; (c) the capital markets; (d) the mining and metals prices and their dependence
on global industrial production, which is cyclical by nature; and (e) global competition in the
markets in which Vale operates. To obtain further information on factors that may lead to
results different from those forecast by Vale, please consult the reports Vale files with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Brazilian Comissão de Valores
