Episode 9 – Cluster
In another episode of “Marcas com História”, Sara Sousa Pinto continues her journey through quarries and mines. The President of Cluster Portugal Mineral Resources, Luís Martins, and the Director, Marta Peres, invite us to explore the history of the use of raw materials that changed the way we live.
The Mineral Resources sector contributes greatly to the development of the Portuguese Economy. Portugal is currently the main producer of Zinc in Europe, and has natural stone works in more than 160 countries.
Cluster Portugal Mineral Resources brings together companies and entities that, in cooperation, show the best that is done in the sector: Innovation, knowledge and technology at the service of environmental, economic and social sustainability in the industry.
On this trip around the country, we give exclusive access to areas of exploration and industrial production, showing that the history of the use of mineral resources is, after all, the History of Human civilization.
