Estimated production of 100 million metric tons of iron ore (formation)
This is how I interpret it.
Ativo normally means assets, but in this particular case it's talking about the potential production that this specific mine will yield.
See:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_ore
Estimated iron ore production in million metric tons for 2009 according to U.S. Geological Survey[4]
