Novo Horizonte is a municipality in the state of Bahia in the North-East region of Brazil (formerly belonging to Ibitiara municipality).

Note on the mineral list:

Until the mid 1990s, Ibitiara county was big and both Remedios and Novo Horizonte were districts of Ibitiara. Then there was a vote and 1) Novo Horizonte was split from Ibitiara and became a new county ("município"), and 2) Remedios voted to join Novo Horizonte.

Therefore, the only county that currently produces rutilated quartz and rutile on hematite is Novo Horizonte, and Remedios is just a district of Novo Horizonte.
