The company said it expected to resume production at the mine by the end of October.
Other activities, such as mining and maintenance, were continuing normally, Vale said.
The cause of the fire is being investigated.
In 2020, Salobo produced 172,700 tonnes of copper, nearly half the Rio de Janeiro-based companies annual output.
