Brazil Minerals, Inc. Adds Premier Brazilian Mining Counsel to Its Board of Advisors

10.07.2013  |  Marketwire

SAO PAULO, BRAZIL--(Marketwired - Jul 10, 2013) - Brazil Minerals Inc. (OTCQB: BMIX) (the "Company" or "BMIX"), a diamond and gold producer with resources and assets in Brazil, today announced that it has added Luís Mauricio Ferraiuoli de Azevedo to its Board of Advisors effective immediately.

Mr. Azevedo is a lawyer and geologist with 25 years of business and mining experience in Brazil. He is currently the Managing Partner at FFA Legal, a legal firm he founded with a main office in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and which is focused solely on natural resources companies. His practice involves business development, joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions, as well regulatory filings and petitions. His experience spans industrial minerals and precious metals, including contacts in the diamond sector as well, and he has worked at the highest federal levels throughout Brazil.

Mr. Azevedo previously worked for Western Mining, Barrick, and Harsco. He assembled land packages that resulted in four initial public offerings of Canadian companies in Brazil (Talon, Avanco, Beadell, and Carnavale) since 2004. He is currently on the Board of Directors of five junior mining companies: Avanco, Avenue, Brazilian Gold, Paringa Resources, and Talon Metals. Mr. Azevedo received a Geology degree from UERJ - Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro in 1986, a law degree from Faculdade Integradas Cândido Mendes in 1992, and a Master of Law degree from PUC-Rio, Pontifícia Universidade Católica of Rio de Janeiro in 1995.

Paulo Roberto Amorim dos Santos Lima, BMIX's Vice President of Geology, reflected on Luís de Azevedo's admission to the BMIX Board of Advisors. "I have known Luís for over 20 years. Because he is a trained geologist, and an effective business person, in my personal opinion he is the best mining counsel in Brazil. As BMIX seeks to carefully and effectively grow its presence in attractively structured situations in several minerals, Luís has the expertise and contacts to help our objectives."

Marc Fogassa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BMIX, added, "We are most fortunate to have Luís de Azevedo join us. He is located in Rio de Janeiro, thus giving us a presence in that city, but travels throughout the country almost weekly. He has a sharp business mind and we look forward to many years of his productive advice."
