Oh...so nothing until 22 April.... I wonder if they're planning something for our birthday. But I'll keep checking until then in case it has been sent by carrier pigeon.

Pocko...I know it isn't, I was just saying we can't even appeal. But that letter, thinking about it, isn't just to the Minister, it's to everybody and anybody who might be interested.

And I don't blame you...lol.

Eric ...What I meant was that there might be deep ore in KS and it goes under the river to K2 and Parkejaure could be a huge amount. Anyway, it's of no matter at the moment, only one thing matters. By the end of May I think we'll have to take stock and ask ourselves if no decision can be taken as No, which would be grounds for an appeal. As you can see, I have no legal background.

Sorry, I meant to say Treetop.

Yes, Tintin...just read the letter again and it's definitely on the fighting side of polite, difficult to imagine how it could be ignored.

Do I detect sarcasm?

I thought was interesting is that Kiruna was once an open pit.

Good... there's always a positive side.

A few more weeks then. :-)

How nice it would be if we were about to ship our first load, which is what we LTHs expected when we first invested here. But I'm still positive one always needs money however old one is..I think Lol

Another perspective on this is that we are not the only company who've had a long wait, there are at least four other licences on the list. And Boliden who are Swedish are equally critical of the process.

I agree with that Googlebot, much better not to leave the fundraising until we need it...and I've got an open mind about the other projects, the Swedes seem to like them.

Yes, I agree with all that pretty much. Trouble is the process, nobody seems to know how it is managed in the circumstances of the MI disagreeing with the local authority because I think it's a rare situation. What they have to decide is the most appropriate land use. And I agree with you Pocko about the spring budget package's negative potential. So what shall what do we do now....the letter from the Chairman is, after all the third letter and I don't think the company received any response from the first two. Then that question from the government, what do you want us to do with the application now and our response which was to send it back to the MI. What was that all about, what did the government think we wanted them to do with it? Since then of course the MI has be reexamined it and returned it for the second time with their recommendation that the concession should be granted...more than a year ago. The thing that keeps me going is that it would have been easy enough to say No. And they have given us plenty of encouragement along the way....the herding business can coexist with the mining business, the law is enough, the ore is where it is, etc.etc. And we have support from other businesses and two Mayors in Norbotten.

Good discussion today...agree with some of all of it...except that legal redress rarely offers a time frame, in my experience it can be delayed indefinitely as this process already has been. Like Aug I'm taking strong support
from the government at face value and the MI are after all a department of the government. Been thinking there must be a reason for this delay and it must be something big...just hope it's something good for us. Let's see what happens after the budget....a package for the regeneration of Norbotten? Politics, bah!

Lol

This was going to rise to 15p before permission it would have done it by now....1 SEK was the sticking point. The new government is beginning to look less new and the initial excitement that something would happen soon is already wearing off. If nothing happens in April...the blue distant yonder will be stretching out before us once again. Thank heaven for the graphite, it is as Tintin says, looking more interesting by the minute.

Pouring water on a goose...I enjoy these translations..didn't put it up for serious analysis.

Morning all Nice post Giovanni...time to rejoice = poetic. On the Avanza page , TFFL has written that the letter to Ibrahim is probably unfortunately like pouring water on a goose. Mesigt of Göran (also sociable) to add "if possible", as he desires a personal meeting with Ibrahim. :-)

On we go then...nearly there?

Now you've gone and made me weep...greener, safer and smarter infrastructure throughout the EU.

It't pretty exciting. :_)
