And as for "There is no pro-mining counter party that has any power to bear to force him into that position."... you're wrong about that, all parties in the Rikstag are in favour of mines except the MP and they'll be lucky to get any seats in the next election if the current polls are anything to go by.

That doesn't make much sense to me, Gambier. What do you mean by: "If they grant the concession, this same attitude will pervade all other decisions that will be required to get a mine into operation. " Surely you can't mean they can't grant the concession...because you wouldn't be sitting there waiting for it, would you.

If the reporter is taking liberties with 'shortly after' and there's been no mention of March...we could be back to February then. LOL

A decision will be made in March, now announces Minister of Trade and Industry Thorwaldsson.
Why wouldn't that be correct?

Remember when it was reported the date for submissions from the Sami Parliament has been extended to 2 February there was a massive sell off. Either Sverigesradio is reporting something misleading or it's a mis translation. How mis translated could it be; could it be by March...if it was sometime after March there would be no point in mentioning March, forthcoming would do nicely.

Much has been said about the Minister moving the decision date forward but he hasn't. Firstly he said the decision would be made in the near future after receipt of the Sami submission and then, today he says the decision will be made in March. Nothing there to complain about, its perfectly straightforward...ie if he means March 2022. Lol.

"No, there is nothing that is impartial, it is a dream that there are people who are impartial."

Must say I admire a man who says that; it's the truth, human beings cannot be impartial, it isn't human. Is the Sami Parliament going to be impartial, no, of course not.

It was really daft to think the decision would come immediately after the 2 February, as soon as the Sami Parliament have made their submission...their comments have to be factored into the decision, obviously.

Lol. Gambier that's quite funny. I think I do that...Somerset! Stroud! Glastonbury!!! Exeter! Devon! Crossing the Tamar!

Morning All.
So...Poetry Club until March. :-)

There is a destiny that shapes our ends, rough hew them how we will.

The MI turned it down on the grounds that they should have included a Natura 2000 licence with the application and Boliden called for a judicial review of the case arguing that it was inappropriate...I believe the Judicial Review found in Boliden's favour and now Natura 2000 permits are part of the Environmental Court

We've already done a 3D Seismic model.

Quantity and quality used to have the reverse meanings in the 16th century: "Things base and vile, holding no quantity, love can transpose to form and dignity..." But no, it doesn't help...KN is big by anybody's standards...Gambier is inferring that it isn't big enough to attract the necessary investment, which is absurd. It's the largest known unbroken iron resource in Europe. More drilling is going to be very exciting but it's about length of life not viability. And money of course.

Gambier..."more revealing drill results? What on earth are you talking about?

Thanks Tops...it would have been easy to say No and they could have said it years and years ago. Yes, I'm a believer. :-)

As Kurt said this morning...we've been in this expectant position before, nine years and we still haven't got the baby. It's making my eyes water just thinking about it. Just looked up the longest pregnancy and it's only one and a half years...years,elephants.

That's a good point Tops...I don't value Finland at 2p because I don't think it's priced in yet...I did say it could put the lights on at Kallak. But a No decision will be pretty bad we all know that.

PS Forgot to mention if we don't get the Yes decision, 2p.

If you were to listen to FarEnd, you'd cut your losses and take 17p now and be done with it, move on and think yourself lucky you didn't lose the lot. If you were to listen to me and promise not to call me a ramper when it goes wrong, you'd be hopeful of getting a bit more back. It depends entirely on sentiment and how people view the future four or five years if we get the concession. FarEnd says will it be all debt. Then again, what about Finland and the Graphite project, could that help to put the lights on. I must confess I don't know what I'm going to do, yet.. I'm hopeful for the moment, it could be good. Kurt will have a plan and if we don't buy it somebody else might. Haven't mentioned Kosovo..that's a bit risky, all mining is. That's my honest opinion Buster and I'm a risk taker with delusions.

Buster...I wish I could tell you, the truth is your guess is as good as mine. :-
