SAO PAULO, June 27 (Reuters) - Vale has reached a deal with the state of Para to have the operating licenses of its Onca Puma nickel mine and Sossego copper mine reinstated, the Brazilian miner said in a securities filing on Thursday.

Both licenses are expected to be reinstated within 48 hours, Vale said, adding it would then resume operations at both mines "as soon as possible". (Reporting by Gabriel Araujo; editing by Jason Neely)
