EMERGING MARKETS-Brazil's real falls, Bolsonaro tests positive for coronavirus
* Brazilian President Bolsonaro tests positive for coronavirus * Brazil's real erases earlier gains * Chile's peso supported by strong export data * Mexican peso pressured by weak oil (Updates prices throughout) By Shreyashi Sanyal July 7 (Reuters) - Brazil's real erased gains from earlier in the session on Tuesday, on caution about the alarming spread of the coronavirus after the country's president, Jair Bolsonaro, tested positive for the virus, while the Mexican peso weakened with sliding oil prices. The real, after having shed more than 25% for the year on heightened political risks and soaring COVID-19 cases, came under pressure as Bolsonaro, long a skeptic about the coronavirus, tested positive for it. The pandemic has killed more than 65,000 people in Brazil, which currently stands as the second-worst hit country in the world by the pandemic after the United States, in terms of infections.

Environmental groups propose tailings dam safety standards
Mining companies should be required to buy private insurance for tailings dams and their board of directors should be held legally responsible for any disasters, a coalition of 140 environmental groups said in a report published on Tuesday. Earthworks and MiningWatch Canada, two prominent environmental nonprofits, co-wrote the report https://earthworks.org/safety-first that includes 16 recommendations they hope will be adopted by regulators across the world and used by bankers as they consider whether to lend to miners. Tailings dams, which are embankments constructed near mines to store mining waste in a liquid or solid form, can sometimes tower dozens of meters high and stretch for several kilometers.

Brazil's Vale signs deal with authorities on COVID-19 monitoring at Itabira mines
Brazilian miner Vale SA has signed an agreement on monitoring for possible coronavirus cases at its Itabira complex, a major iron ore production facility temporarily shuttered earlier this month out of health concerns, authorities said on Thursday. A number of sanitary measures including testing all workers every 21 days were agreed with labor prosecutors in Minas Gerais state and with a local court, the authorities said, adding that Vale now had 15 days to draw up the details of a virus mitigation plan. Prosecutors will use reports the company has agreed to produce regularly to decide on possible new actions at the complex, where changes in production levels can potentially affect iron ore prices internationally.

Brazil state prosecutors seek to block expansion of Anglo American mining dam
Brazilian state prosecutors filed a lawsuit on Tuesday requesting that miner Anglo American PLC's <AAL.L> licence to expand a mining dam be suspended, following a fatal mining disaster last year. The state of Minas Gerais passed a law last year commonly called "Sea of Mud, Never Again" to change mining rules following the collapse of a dam at a Vale SA <VALE3.SA> facility that released a torrent of mining waste, killing at least 270 people. Based on that law, Minas Gerais prosecutors are seeking to block the planned expansion in capacity of Anglo's Minas-Rio facility, which includes raising the height of a dam that contains mining tailings.
