It seems strange to me that a mining country can't transport iron pellets 40 km without the attendant diffculties in every direction seemingly making it an impossible project.

Eric...and probably all of our opinion at the moment. We hear more about it. Most important question is obviously the timeline for Kallak.

Still looking...pipe erosion and wear seem to be the main environmental hazards and there's work going on to make more resistant pipes.

There's plenty on the net about it...and it's been successfully operated for decades, over very long distances...refinery seems to have chosen the potentially negative bits...without any real examples.

Question 1 then....will we live long enough for the cost effectiveness of a pipeline to have any meaning for us?

Question 2...When might we some accelerated development?

Transport has always been an issue, I mean the preferred method; infastructure and distance to the railway and the port have been offered as positives. But given that this mine has been approved in theory, vehicular transportation can't surely be out of the question. Why can't they have more than one means?

We'll have to ask those questions.

Morning All. Can't disagree with that.

So the EIA is delayed from Q1 because of the pipeline option but it is substantially complete. And the pipeline has been adopted as a result of the Consultation Process as the environmental best option....and it's low cost in operation. Good, upbeat interview I thought, better than the last one.

Just for the sake of discussion...didn't Thorwaldsson, when he was Minister for Business and Industry, say that the resource was too good to leave in the ground.

Seeing that LKAB are the natural owners...just hoping we get a fair price for 'developing it'.

Morning Aug. It's a long time since we had a political argument. Lol.

Nice to hear from you.

Troaj...Montana, that's in the US of A. You've got to be joking! Lol.

That JDV just makes me shudder.

Troaj...big sigh from me. Lol. Have a nice weekend, sun's coming out, I'm going to prune my apple trees, a little bit late but not too late.

On very single level and against every single metric...that's a bit harsh?

Another question which isn't a fun fact.. ...how are they getting away with it...these tyrants?

Yes, apparently, solids can be transported through pipelines, it's been done for coal since the 1950s...there's plenty to read about it.

The orange god-king wont last forever.

Not so long ago LKAB had a bit of a crisis, didn't they, when they found their seam was running out. They've found some more, but how deep is it and how good.
