The above is now the below. The above is to entertain you while we wait for the RNS/an RNS.

For the sake of clarity the above is in answer to FarEnd.

Why ridicule me? How about yourself....why have you stayed so long, if indeed you are invested for nobody knows. I post my sincere views as worthy or worthless as anyone else's. I'm equally frustrated by the situation and I should have sold when I reached my average which is 8p, I knew that was a sensible thing to do but I didn't do it and I don't regret my decision. As for backing Kurt, I back his because I trust his judgement but that doesn't mean I know he will succeed because I don't. Being ****ged off every day isn't good for anyone's health...just saying. If I started to sell my holding, the sp would go down significantly...just saying.

Thank you Dornod for some rational comments on Kurt's situation....we should be backing him in these circumstances he deserves our support.

The end of time isn't forthcoming so far as anybody I know knows....a meteor might strike the earth tomorrow or it might not.

Pretty much what I expected him to say. The status of the decision concerning our application is "forthcoming" which must mean the proposed investigation into the process is for the benefit of other applications. ;-)

Mikael Staffas CEO of Boliden and Jan Mostromm, CEO of LKAB....are as ****ed off as we are.

So....you are paying great attention! Lol

Aper of 12 posts.....re seizing the moment? Maybe you're just not paying attention.

Just sold. ;-)

Whenever we get a little snippet of encouragement in the news, I'm now thinking it is the prelude to more delay, because that's been the formula so far. Can't go on forever though, the Riksdag will also be looking for answers to what's happening to Sweden's mining policy....remember that, how many more mines needed by 2030. ;-(

Good afternoon Glacial...don't worry, we all are Not on the agenda again today but I'm not bothered because I'm of the 'As a flash on a cloudy day,' party.

Article from DI posted on Avanza....thanks Exchange Professor.

In Tuesday's Di, the environmental party's spokesperson for the Environment Party, Amanda Palmstierna, says: “The Ministry of Industry probably sees the attitude of the Environment Party, but the government should consider the matter according to the law. There are two completely different bags. ”This statement is not very reassuring. Unfortunately, the fact that the government has difficulties in reaching a decision must be linked to this contradiction

In Sweden, there are not only classic mining metals. Sweden is likely to be prominent in what is called "innovation-critical metals and minerals". This applies, for example, to rare earth metals, graphite, lithium, cobalt. Common is that they are needed to cope with the electrification that will constitute the next technology leap, which MP also wants. Battery factories require new metals.

More than 600 current exploration permits are available from the state government Bergsstaten, but few of these will lead to any recovery. The most common condition concerns copper and then gold. But vanadium, lithium and cobalt have increased in number in recent years, which is linked to battery production according to Bergsstaten.

This is a global issue for the future. The climate crisis cannot be solved without a massive electrification. The new metals and minerals are needed. Here, Sweden and Europe have a role. It is not primarily about our continent having to become self-sufficient for these mining products for industrial policy reasons. It's about having control over the working conditions in the mines we buy from. Today, most rare earth metals come from China. Cobalt comes from Congo-Kinshasa.

Why shouldn't Sweden, one of the world's most high-tech mining countries, be involved in extracting these metals and minerals?

Sweden has fallen in the Canadian Fraser Institute's ranking of the investment climate in the mining sector. We should now recover the competitive advantage that we should have when it comes to, for example, regulations and licensing.

It is about both the big mines and the opportunities that exist here to extract the metals and minerals of the future.

Better press than we usually get:

The industry needs new Swedish mines

LEADERS. That mining was one of Sweden's basic industries was learned in school. Similarly, the iron ore, decades after decades, has made Sweden rich. So how many mines are there in Sweden? Sixteen pieces.

Sweden's active mines are mostly old, and some of them are really big like the Kiruna mine. But they are not very numerous and only a few have been put into operation during the last ten-year period.

In recent days, Di reports that the permit cases for an iron ore mine in Kallak in Lapland (Beowulf Mining), the expansion of the copper mine in Aitik in Lapland (Boliden BOL + 0.38%) and a copper mine in Laver in Norrbotten (Boliden). These are big mines, and the permitting process for the three is in different phases. Two of them, Laver and Kallak, are with the government for decisions, and there they have been for several years.

At the same time, all of LKAB's operations in Kiruna will receive a new permit from the Land and Environmental Court.

Last week, Mikael Staffas and Jan Moström, CEO of Boliden and LKAB, held a meeting with Business Minister Ibrahim Baylan. What they demand is efficient and legally secure processes, according to Jan Moström.

A parliamentary majority (M, SD, KD and C) demanded in the spring that the permit processes be speeded up and that the government should return with information about the measures that have been taken, but that does not seem to have helped.

Latexperience affects many sectors. Generally speaking, many jobs stand both in the build-up phase and when there is full production. More specifically, it is also about industrial companies such as Atlas Copco, ABB, Sandvik, AB Volvo and Epiroc as well as consulting companies such as ÅF Pöyry and Sweco.

These have the whole world as a field of work, but the value of a working Swedish mining cluster for those companies cannot be overestimated.

There is a crack in the government in the view of mines. The environmental party is skeptical of new mines, which was most recently manifested at the party's congress and through statements from the Per Bolund language pipeline. And a few years ago, the representative was Gustav Fridolin in Jokkmokk to campaign against the Kallak mine.

The Social Democrats are traditionally positive to the development of Swedish mining.

In Tuesday's Di, the environmental party's spokesperson for the Environment Party, Amanda Palmstierna, says: “The Ministry of Industry probably sees the attitude of the Environment Party, but the government should consider the matter according to the law. There are two completely different bags. ”This statement is

PS Thanks Andy for the translation.

On cultural grounds? Time they shook their culture up a bit then...the MP are intent on bringing the dark ages back upon us what about a thousand years of mining culture.
