Abstract: How does innovation work in the iron ore innovation system in Minas Gerais? Authors like Pfitzner (2014) state that innovation occurs in the mining activity in production process, aiming to reduce costs or to meet socio-environment requirements; and that there is a culture resistance to innovation. Souza Júnior (2014) states that mining is not a relevant part of the dynamics of the regional innovation system in Minas Gerais; and Pietrobelli, Marin e Olivari (2018) said that leading mining companies tend to trust in traditional suppliers, and prefer then to new companies. This work intends to present an overview of the innovation system in the iron ore mining activity in Minas Gerais, to validate these hypotheses identified in the literature, identify their main characteristics, and present contributions to the literature in the conclusion
