Brazil's Vale SA said on Friday it is running into delays as it seeks environmental licenses for new projects due to "more sophisticated" requirements. Vale cited slower regulatory approvals in reducing its 2022 iron ore production outlook to 310 million to 320 million tonnes from 320 million to 335 million tonnes. "Environmental licensing processes in Brazil and actually all over the world are getting more sophisticated," said Vale's head of ferrous metals, Marcello Spinelli, in an earnings call with analysts.
