Miners Vale SA and BHP Group are a step closer to finalizing a deal with Brazilian authorities to provide a multibillion dollar settlement for one of the country’s worst mining disasters.

Vale estimates $30 billion in fines and compensation for 2015 dam collapse in Brazil, with a settlement under discussion. BHP faces separate lawsuit.

BHP's tactics in Brazil may be going too far. On Friday, the miner, partner Vale and their Samarco joint venture in the country outlined a potential 132 billion reais ($23 billion) settlement with Brazilian authorities over a catastrophic dam failure in 2015.
