Morning Eric,
Sadly, with 200m plus shares changing hands since the announcement, most at a price significantly higher than the current SP, many will be trapped here now, as you have been these past years.
Kurt needs to earn his corn now. He has had so long to prepare, he must deliver a flurry of news in the very near future to establish some upwards momentum, otherwise, the same ennui as pre concession will descend on this saga for some time to come.
Good luck Eric.
PS, I’m still not in, thankfully, or I’d be trapped too!

I would like to congratulate Eric Draven, Suzy2 and all long termers here, now that you have the concession you have waited over a decade for.
Budge has had 7 and a half years to prepare for this. Looking at the SP this morning, you should hope he has prepared well.

This letter is about 5 years late.
Thor will fob Budge off with the stock ministerial response that it's so complex blah blah.
I'm done with it all.

Budge and Thor have still never met. Tells me all I need to know, given the amount of time Thor has lavished on the Sami, not to mention the unjustified additional time he has given them for absolutely no good reason.
I’ve seen enough to know Thor is exactly the same as his predecessors. Fecking useless.

Another week slips by....
....looks like Thor has been fitted with the Damberg / Baylan chip.

Gambler,
Yes. Economic hypocrisy of the worst kind.
Create a precarious economic dependency on a rogue state run as an autocracy by one unopposed madman is unlikely to end well.
And nobody anticipated this?
Come on!!!
So we light up public buildings blue and yellow, whilst Putin's shabby rag bag of unmotivated conscripts amateurishly and murderousy destroys Ukraine.
The West is doing literally nothing to make a difference to Putin's lunacy.
The continuing appeasement of a man who invents his own truths will continue to embolden him.
I would hope we have people embedded within the Kremlin who have the necessary resolve and capability to do the deed.....

Suzy2,
To conflate the invasion of Ukraine with the lack of a decision on Kallak is bonkers.

Suzy2,
Just imagine how heated I’d be if I were invested - grrrrr hahaha.

Gambier,
With respect, after 9 years, this can not be labelled a delay.
It is wilful obstruction of a process of their own making.
Add to this, incompetence, incessant leaks ( unchallenged )of price sensitive information, preferential treatment of anti mining factions, the Green Party and the Sami primarily and you have the perfect, atrophied nonsense which has been the signature of this saga all along.
Nine years, and people are still saying “ oh well, never mind “

I am astonished that people are excusing the minister’s abdication of his duty of office, especially after all his media bluster about mining in Sweden.
Life goes on.
If it weren’t for the 24/7 blanket media coverage of the invasion of Ukraine, you would know nothing of it.
Life is normal here and most of the rest of the world.
The Ukrainians have the right idea. Fight to protect what they value, and that means carrying on in the face of overwhelming odds, no matter what the cost.
What overwhelming odds is Thor facing which stops him fulfilling his obligations?
None.
He should have already delivered the ( correct ) decision on Kallak.
It is four months since he stated all necessary information was already to hand to make it.

Selling at 13p this morning.
A month ago, it would have been 17p, yet, not long before that, even 13p would have seemed fanciful.
Thor has let you down badly.
He has proved himself to be just the latest bag of wind off the Swedish production line.
I am of the opinion that, once the hustings take hold of the politicians feeble minds, Kallak will receive no attention, and very quickly today’s sell price will once again be just more wishful thinking.

Politicians talking too much and doing too little.
A universal, perennial plague.
Putin may be mad, but he is not stupid. He has played on the west's elected impotence for over 20 years.
And still Russia is in the chair at the UN, the most impotent talking shop of them all.
The circus rolls on.....

This duplicitous madman has given Thor the perfect excuse to do nothing further with the Kallak application.

I disagree.
Geo-political instability increases the need for basic commodity self sufficiency, which used to be Sweden's strength.
Politicians are a modern scourge, with all the appeal of inquisition high clergy. Appalling human beings.

When he took up the post, he was spouting pro mining works on a daily basis. You couldn't shut him up.
That was his honeymoon period when all he had to do was talk.
We have moved on. Now the time for talking has ended and it's time to act, he has gone to ground.
If you need to see how politicians behave, look at Putin.

Winding = windbag

His irresponsible and faux rhetoric is now clear.
This will be back down to 5p in the next few days.
I am furious with myself for being fooled by yet another winding.

If Thor makes no decision by the end of Feb, in my opinion he’s bottled it.
He said over 3 months ago there was all the info required with which to make a decision. All the ( unnecessary ) additional submissions will be seen as a device to get him through to the hustings for the September election, when all other business is shelved traditionally.
I felt he was different from Damberg and Baylan - more credible in his pro mining rhetoric. But without the action to back it up, he is just another clone.
I hope I’m wrong. Still waiting to buy back in, but no way without the concession.

There is no justifiable reason for the decision not to be made now. The delays afforded to the mine's opponents have added nothing.
The Swedes never do anything promptly though.
The decision has to be made before hustings begin next month.
Will Thor do what his position demands of him? We shall see in the next few days.
