Hello Treetop. I think this is pressure...MP in the most recent opinion poll are showing support of 3.8% and L 2.5%, too low to make the qualifying target for seats (4%), whereas the Opposition Parties M and SD have gained since the 2018 election.

someone punting with 400,000 buy.
it wasn't me.
Rather than put this on Kurt's shoulders the whole mining industry needs to be knocking on the swedish PM's door. Their cowardice facing the green lobby is destroying the industry in Sweden. Fine to cut apparent emissions while outsourcing to less clean production sources elsewhere in the world then ship across the world to feed their energy consumption in Stockholm and cities ! Hypocrites.
On a more positive note the sp has been moving steadily north in sweden and we are now lagging based on a 11.73 exchange rate. Hopefully the wily swedes know more than we do!
UNESCO way way overdue so why isnt Baylan asking for the response, and if not, why not ask the PM why Baylan isnt asking for a response. Lots of news about the swedish "Keystone Cops"mining industry. You would think that someone would act
Kurt really needs to apply pressure now and I can't believe this hasn't more media attention, also as Eric has mentioned contact with the PM would be a good move..
It is good to see the pressurecontinue, but it seems like water off a ducks back to Mr Baylan, whos primary job appears to be to NOT do his job.
Thank You Pocko. Have missed you and your excellent input . More pleae
Thank you Pocko all very interesting weāve just got to live a few more years, good luck
Continued... Surveys by SGU show that Sweden's bedrock has plenty of these substances. But at the same time, the Bergsstaten authority states that interest from companies is declining. Bergsstaten states that "lack of social acceptance for exploration and mining activities that lead to lengthy legal proceedings is an important factor".
The positive consequences of an industrial establishment are simply not as obvious anymore. Or as a heavyweight CEO in the industry recently put it, "It feels like we've lost a battle here."
The former Social Democratic Minister of Trade and Industry Anders Sundstrƶm has a possible explanation. He believes that a nomenclature of officials has emerged that has made conservation a matter of the heart. There are fewer authorities that defend the socio-economic and growth-oriented perspectives.
Martin Berg: Mining policy threat to a green future
Mining companies are long-term players, but Swedish mining policy is starting to make them give up.
SWEDEN 1 JUNE 2021 05:00
This is an editorial. The article expresses the newspaper's opinion - forming line. Norrbottens-Kuriren's political etiquette is moderate.
A noticeably tired Mikael Staffas, CEO of the mining company Boliden, stated in an interview with DI (28/8): "We are building up a portfolio of potential investments. This also includes Swedish projects, but unfortunately those investments are the most difficult to obtain a permit. "While we are waiting, we are looking more deeply at other countries".
The day before Christmas Eve, the government put a stop to the company's plans to open a copper mine in Laver in Norrbotten. Then Boliden had waited for four years for a message.
Or ask Kurt Budge, CEO of the British mining company Beowulf. He has been waiting for over ten years for information on what will happen to an iron ore mine in Kallak. In the meantime, the company has invested approximately SEK 80 million in trying to satisfy all conflicting interests.
It went so far that the Constitutional Committee criticized the government for not spending a minute or three years processing Beowulf's application. It is perhaps therefore not so strange that it has not opened a single new mine in Sweden in 13 years and that we are collapsing in international mine rankings for countries worth investing in.
With these long time spans, the conditions also have time to change. A decision is appealed and a new ruling puts an end to everything. Or it may be a new national interest that must be taken into account or weighed against another. All of a sudden no one knows what applies anymore.
And when the legal positions are locked, the various cases end up in the lap of the government. Had it been up to the Social Democrats, the matter would have been clear, but according to information, they do not dare to touch the Sami reindeer husbandry and the power relationship to the Green Party. It is too sensitive and therefore it was no for Boliden.
Of course, mines must undergo proper environmental assessments, but as things stand, Swedish mining policy has developed into a ravine of unpredictability that prevents Sweden from taking advantage of its green resources.
At the same time, the International Energy Agency (IEA) has recently stated that world demand for so-called innovation-critical metals and minerals will explode in the next two decades. These are substances that are absolutely crucial for the ongoing green transition and a must in the engines and batteries of electric cars, or in wind turbines and new power lines.
The IEA also points to a future "frightening" large gap between supply and demand, and notes that the world is largely dependent on China for supply and processing.

Thuggish comments get things going..
Can't we just slip him a Mickey Finnn?
BTW for the woke ones among us, that was a joke in case you are going to get me expelled for violent comments.
I guess like everything thing else, we have to take the silver lining and assume it meant that something is happening as opposed to nothing. But yes I am sure Mr Baylan is taking practice swings ready to knock the ball back out to someone else rather than doing his job and taking a decision.
Morning Wotitsworth...... 'Soon' means something like 'forthcoming', which we can hope means something that really, really will happen eventually; it is something that will evolve in due course into what we perceive to be Now, but whether or not the situation will be transfigured by it is uncertain. Will we then be able to seize the hour and make hay while the sun shines, who knows?
Some time ago, the lady from UNESCO said "We can expect a response soon"
From an organisation that takes 7 months to answer such a simple question , I guess we should have known that "Soon"didnt actually mean soon.................
Pmsl.
Afternoon.. ā19 Million Tonnesā?.....Lets see now - 19 Million@ say $50 P/T Net? = $950 Millionā¦ā¦ 828 Million shares in issue = $1.147p/sā¦. And todayās S/P is 0.415P, having got the backing from the MI years ago! 0.415 is the reflection of the Governmentās meddling, and that means you Mr Baylan ā Minister for innovation and enterprise, in a pro ā mining Nation, is a little fib!!!!.... āGreen transitionā? Investors in the Kallak project are climate ā justice warriors. What more do you want I wonder? Now swallow you medicine man - āConcession firstā!!! lol..atbā¦ā¦
Things are getting better every day...and they've just got 19 million tons better. Have a happy day everyone, the Sun's going to shine on us later on, I think. :-)
Give them to Baylan, maybe that'll give him some incentive to do his job
Mal. I'll take one for the team if LB doesn't want them
Weird isn't it Prof. Maybe they are all buys, including that recent whopper at 3.2p. Not sure why anyone would sell that many, even if it's a former buyer at the 3.16p discount fundraise price. Not much of a notch up if it's a sell. We've had a resource upgrade and people are selling large amounts after that news seems a bit unusual.
I'm clueless again matey.
Hi Aug. Yes, I feel that's spot on. UNESCO can make comments but not recommendations on our case, considering this is to do with a mining project that is located well outside of their WH site of interest and surely nothing really to do with them. Any recommendation would quickly be classed as unreasonable interference, as a bare minimum, by Kurt.
Only my view.
I bought a cheeky 100000 earlier but didnāt do much good ,I was hoping to put it into lbjj s name so he could be a a proper shareholder like the rest of us on here, lol ,
Delayed trades rather
