Brazilian tin-producing company, White Solder, has been accused of acquiring a mineral\u00a0 illegally mined in the Yanomami Indigenous Territory in the Brazilian Amazon. White Solder has supplied hundreds of metric tons of tin to companies with U.S. Department of Defense contracts, according to an investigation by Rep\u00f3rter Brasil.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

White Solder, which describes itself as one of the world\u2019s largest tin producers, supplied at least 525 metric tons of tin to U.S.-based Indium Corporation between May 2023 and August 2025, according to records analyzed by Rep\u00f3rter Brasil. Indium Corporation in turn supplied solder to Raytheon, a major U.S. defense contractor that manufactures military technologies including radar and precision-guided missiles.<\/span><\/p>\n

White Solder also reportedly supplied at least 2,400 metric tons of tin to Nathan Trotter, a U.S. manufacturer of tin and solder alloys between 2021 and 2025. In 2024, the U.S. Department of Defense awarded Nathan Trotter a $19 million contract to build a tin smelting, refining and recycling facility in Pennsylvania, Rep\u00f3rter Brasil reported. <\/span><\/p>\n

According to a release<\/a> from the Department of Defense, the investment was intended to counter, \u201cChinese efforts to monopolize the global supply, as well as mitigate smelting supply chain vulnerabilities.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe US\u2019s expanding need for raw materials to underpin its military will lead to further harms associated with mining, both illegal and legal unless safeguards and due diligence are put in place and followed,\u201d Emily Iona Stewart, head of policy and advocacy with the U.K.-based NGO Global Witness, told Rep\u00f3rter Brasil.<\/span><\/p>\n

In August 2026, a Brazilian federal court accepted charges of money laundering and illegal mining against White Solder filed by the Federal Public Prosecutor\u2019s Office. <\/span><\/p>\n

The prosecutors allege that White Solder paid 166 million Brazilian reais ($32.5 million) to Coopertin, a tin producer cooperative, which was accused of disguising the origin of more than 525 tons of cassiterite illegally extracted from Yanomami territory between 2021 and 2022. Cassiterite is the raw material used to make tin, which functions as a solder for some technologies. <\/span><\/p>\n

Rep\u00f3rter Brasil published a separate report alleging that while White Solder claimed to have purchased more than 2,300 metric tons of cassiterite from two authorized areas in the Brazilian state of Rond\u00f4nia between 2020 and 2025. However, satellite imagery, aerial surveys and field investigations found no evidence of such mining activity. Greenpeace Brasil, which collaborated on the investigation, described the sites as \u201cghost mines,\u201d that could potentially be used to disguise the origin of minerals illegally extracted elsewhere.<\/span><\/p>\n

Indium Corporation told Rep\u00f3rter Brasil that White Solder met the criteria of the Responsible Minerals Initiative when it supplied the company with the metal. Indium did not say if White Solder is still a supplier.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

White Solder, Nathan Trotter, Coopertin, Raytheon and the U.S. Department of Defense did not respond to Rep\u00f3rter Brasil\u2019s questions.<\/span><\/p>\n
