You've followed BBX for some time but you don't know about the Serra Pelada Au-Pt-Pd mine? I've posted heaps about it on the BBX threads.
It's got very similar metallurgy and the source rock appears to be a diorite (gabbro), same as Tres-Ema with a similar genesis.
Have you heard of Google? I suggest you check it out. There's heaps of platinum in Brazil.

I'm about done responding to naive posts. It's hurting my brain.

(Kitco News) - Once home to the largest gold rush in Latin American history from 1979 to the mid-1980s, Colossus Minerals Inc.’s (TSX:CSI)(OTCQX:COLUF) Serra Pelada Gold-Platinum-Palladium Project in Para, northeastern Brazil, is slated to soon produce gold and PGMs once again.
Serra Pelada, at its peak in the 1980s, saw as many as 80,000 artisanal miners (called garimpeiros) mine roughly 2 million ounces of gold as well as platinum and palladium from a hand-dug open pit. Flooding and a pit wall collapse put an end to mining in the mid-1980s.
