Regional Strategy for Sustainable and Innovative Development of the Mineral Industry -2025
Yesterday 21:19 IP: 3Bp / PCPVJ
"Regional strategy for innovative and sustainable development of the mineral sector in the county of Norrbotten and Västerbotten is part of the county's overall strategies for regional development. It is also linked to Sweden's mineral strategy."
"Mineral deposits that are to be broken can not, of course, be moved but need to be exploited where they are. The legislation governing mineral extraction consists of the Mineral Act, the Environmental Code, the Plan and Building Act, as well as several other laws that apply in parallel."
"There is a great need to develop long-term sustainable transport solutions in northern Sweden, where iron ore wreckage will in particular lead to major infrastructure loads in the next few years. Existing and efficient infrastructure for heavy transport and, in particular, rail infrastructure is also one of the important Parameters that affect development.
In order to achieve Sweden's goals as leading mining and, in the long run, the EU's raw material supply target states that the infrastructure is a bottleneck today. This requires that national funds be set aside for achieving the objectives of Sweden as leading mining. "
"The availability of minerals and the ability to extract metals has been and is a prerequisite for the emergence of modern society. Metals can be recycled or reused, which contributes to reduced environmental impact and reduced demand for recovery. However, recovered volumes cover only a part of future needs, therefore an ore-based metal production will continue to be necessary. "
"Norrbotten and Västerbotten County accounts for 90% of the EU's iron ore production, 24% of gold production and 10% of copper production. The rich ore foundations in the Malm fields and Skellefteå field have played an important role in the economic and social development of our counties, as well as expertise and breadth in Research and Innovation in the region. "
"Sweden's mineral strategy was adopted by the government in 2013. Part of the vision for the Swedish mineral strategy is that Sweden strengthens its position as the EU's leading mining and mineral nation. The national strategy is a basis for the government's mineral policy and the basis for achieving target images through relevant policy areas . "
