About the time in Rio Tinto
Sunrise today lands at 05:24 and sunset at 05:20 local time, giving 11h 56m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-6.80, -35.04) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Rio Tinto.
Rio Tinto runs on America/Recife, which puts the city UTC −3 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Rio Tinto day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 12:00–20:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
