Santo Antônio do Grama is a municipality in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil. The population is 4,103 (2015 est.) in an area of 130.21 km².[1]
The city became prominent due to the mining accident in March 2018 where a mine piping from Anglo American plc leaked more than 300 tons of ore pulp to the local river, halting the water supply to the population. [2] [3]
