Over the course of that decade, Batista became chairman of the board and CEO of TVX Gold. It was starting with this company - listed in Canada’s Toronto Stock Exchange - that Batista’s relationship with the global capital markets began.〔(Trajectory ) EBX Group〕 Between 1980 and 2000, he raised US$ 20 billion in value through the implementation and operation of nine gold and silver mines in Brazil and Canada (Amapari, Casa Berardi, Crixás, Musselwhite, New Britania, Novo Astro, Novo Planeta, and Paracatu), as well as a mine in Chile (La Coipa). In the 2000s, he began operating three iron ore mines in Brazil (Mina 63, Tico Tico, and Ipê). Between 2004 and 2012, Batista structured and went public with six companies: OGX, MPX, LLX, MMX, OSX, and CCX.〔("Brazil billionaire's CCX to list on S.Paulo bourse" ), ''Reuters'', May 15, 2012〕 Until 2014, EBX will invest R$ 30 million in the training of 25,000 workers and has simultaneously allocated approximately R$ 20 million in financing for projects and partnerships with universities in Brazil, Chile, Colombia and China.
