title: Ministro defende urgência na regulamentação da exploração de minerais críticos no Brasil

description: Não queremos ser um exportador de matéria-prima. Não vamos cometer o equívoco de imaginar que minerais críticos ou terras raras sejam objeto de exportação. Têm que ser de industrialização", disse nesta sexta-feira (24), no programa Bom Dia, Ministro, produzido pela Empresa Brasil de Comunicação (EBC).

snippets: Ademais, Márcio Elias Rosa comentou sobre a retirada de pauta do Projeto de Lei 2780/24, que visa criar uma Política Nacional de Minerais Críticos. Embora reconheça a urgência de legislar sobre o tema, o governo quer uma discussão mais aprofundada antes de levar a proposta ao Congresso Nacional, visando aprimorar as diretrizes relacionadas à industrialização desses minerais.

snippets: O ministro do Desenvolvimento, Indústria, Comércio e Serviços, Márcio Elias Rosa, defendeu nesta sexta-feira (24) a urgência de aprovar regras claras para a exploração de minerais críticos no Brasil. Segundo ele, uma legislação específica é essencial para reduzir dúvidas sobre o destino de ativos considerados estratégicos e garantir o desenvolvimento da indústria nacional.

title: Ministro afirma que Brasil busca industrializar minerais críticos, não apenas exportá-los

description: Para Márcio Elias Rosa, venda de mineradora em Goiás a grupo estrangeiro desrespeita competências federais e exige legislação clara.

snippets: O governo de Goiás celebrou a negociação, que se alinha a um memorando de entendimento assinado em março deste ano pelo então governador Ronaldo Caiado com o governo dos Estados Unidos. Esse acordo visava aprofundar a cooperação bilateral entre o estado e os EUA, permitindo pesquisas e desenvolvimento tecnológico conjuntos, além de facilitar investimentos na exploração de minerais críticos.

snippets: Esta mineradora detém a exclusividade, fora do continente asiático, na produção de quatro elementos de alto valor estratégico: o disprósio (Dy), o térbio (Tb), o neodímio (Nd) e o ítrio (Y). Tais minerais são cruciais para a fabricação de ímãs permanentes, empregados em setores como veículos elétricos, turbinas eólicas, robótica, drones e equipamentos de alta eficiência, além de aplicações em semicondutores, defesa, nuclear e aeroespacial.

snippets: A transação foi celebrada pelo governo de Goiás. O ex-governador Ronaldo Caiado, em março deste ano, firmou um memorando de entendimento com o governo dos Estados Unidos visando o fortalecimento da cooperação bilateral, autorizando pesquisas e desenvolvimento tecnológico conjuntos, bem como a atração de investimentos para a exploração de minerais críticos.

title: Midc afirma que acordo de Goiás com EUA sobre terras raras não avança

description: O ministro Márcio Elias Rosa disse que o memorando de Goiás com os EUA sobre minerais críticos não deve avançar, pois a exploração é competência da União e há vício de constitucionalidade. O governo quer estimular a geração de valor agregado: processamento no Brasil e não apenas extração; não haverá criação de estatal para o setor. O acordo entre Goiás e os EUA não deve prosperar, devido à fragilidade legal de uma lei estadual; o subsolo pertence à União e as relações com outros países cabem à esfera federal.

snippets: O ministro do Midc, Márcio Elias Rosa, afirmou que o memorando entre Goiás e os EUA sobre exploração de terras raras não deve avançar para projetos econômicos. Segundo ele, esse tipo de acordo é competência da União, não dos estados, o que inviabiliza normas estaduais nesse tema.

snippets: O ministro do Midc (Ministério do Desenvolvimento, Indústria, Comércio e Serviços), Márcio Elias Rosa, disse que o memorando de entendimento assinado pelo governador de Goiás, Ronaldo Caiado (PSD), com os Estados Unidos, para exploração de terras raras, não deve avançar e se tornar projetos econômicos porque esse tipo de acordo é de competência da União, e não dos Estados.

snippets: A negociação foi festejada pelo governo de Goiás, cujo ex-governador Ronaldo Caiado assinou com o governo dos Estados Unidos, em março deste ano, um memorando de entendimento para "fortalecer a cooperação bilateral" entre o estado e os EUA, autorizando a realização de pesquisa e desenvolvimento tecnológico conjuntos e a facilitação de investimentos para a exploração de minerais críticos.

title: Ministro declara que Brasil busca diversificação além da exportação de minerais críticos

snippets: Não queremos ser um exportador de matéria-prima. Não vamos cometer o equívoco de imaginar que minerais críticos ou terras raras sejam objeto de exportação. Têm que ser de industralização", disse no programa "Bom Dia, Ministro", produzido pela Empresa Brasil de Comunicação ( EBC ).

snippets: Precisamos legislar e regular logo esse tema, porque ele suscita não apenas dúvidas, mas, sobretudo, insegurança [jurídica] sobre quem pode explorar, as mudanças, as fusões e as transformações dessas empresas, quem pode acessar o alvará para explorar e minerar. Tudo tem que estar regulado", defendeu.

snippets: O ministro rejeita a ideia de criação de uma estatal para o setor. "Em nossa avaliação, no atual modelo, não há necessidade alguma de se criar uma estatal para fazer a exploração, refino ou beneficiamento de mineral crítico estratégico. Já há instrumentos legais que permitem eventuais subvenções e há a possibilidade de associações com o setor privado e o fomento desse setor essencial", argumentou, acrescentando que a criação de uma estatal "não seria sinônimo de melhor aproveitamento desses ativos".

title: Nvidia shareholders hit the jackpot. They're suing anyway.

description: It's difficult to muster much sympathy for investors who bought Nvidia stock in 2017 — those who held on have since enjoyed gains of 3,400 per cent or more.

snippets: That hasn't deterred plaintiffs' lawyers from pressing a securities fraud class action, opens new tab against the chipmaking giant for nearly eight years, rooted in what proved to be a temporary slide in Nvidia's share price during the crypto-market turbulence of 2018.

snippets: To state a securities fraud claim, plaintiffs must show they relied on misstatements – and, crucially, that the alleged misstatements had a price impact. What's tricky is determining whether Nvidia's earlier, general comments about crypto actually inflated its stock price.

snippets: Plaintiffs say those assurances masked the truth — that crypto played a larger role in Nvidia's revenue than the company let on. Beginning in 2017, as the price of certain cryptocurrencies rose, Nvidia's chips became increasingly popular for cryptomining, a process that involves performing complex math equations in order to secure cryptocurrencies. But when crypto prices fell, so did demand for the chips.

Second, they argue the judge erred by certifying the class without requiring plaintiffs to present a detailed model for calculating damages – an argument that's recently gained traction in other circuits.

snippets: A $81 billion Warner-Paramount mega merger has received shareholders' stamp of approval, propelling a deal that could vastly reshape Hollywood and the wider media landscape closer to the finish line.

Including debt, the deal is valued at nearly $111 billion based on Warner's current outstanding shares.

But eventually, Paramount offered more money and Netflix abruptly bowed out of the race.
