Gold and its exploration are linked to the development of this municipality, which was separated from Colombo under the name of Timoneira on October 28, 1947. On March 24, 1956, its former and traditional name, Almirante Tamandaré, was restored through State Law no. 2,644, in honor of the Marquis of Tamandaré, admiral and patron of the Brazilian Navy.

It also has four sources of mineral water that are bottled and sold.
