In 2021, exports of iron ore from Brazil amounted to nearly 44.7 billion U.S. dollars, the highest value reported in at least one decade. In comparison to the previous year, this represented an increase of more than 73 percent. This was the result of a growth in prices, combined with a slight increase in export volume. China was by far the leading destination for Brazilian iron ore exports that year.
