Armi Rousu and Åsa Allan says that their iron ore is as pure as it gets and has a high value on the market. -
This might seem like a boring photo of an empty production hall, and your absolutely right. It is just an empty production hall. What makes it interesting is that it is the hall for the production line for the Sahavaara mine, situated just next to the production line for the current mine, Tapuli. Both these mines are situated in the Kaunisvaara area. As soon as start up for the development of the Sahavaara mine is financed, conveyor belts, iron separators and other production equipment will be installed in this hall and the production in Kaunisvaara will be doubled. -
The Northland Resources factory building. -
The iron ore is loaded on to the trucks from Clifton and driven to the freight train terminal in Svappavara, which is a drive of approximately 150 kilometers. -
Since the trucks drive on narrow roads through several small northern Swedish villages, Clifton Transport has put photos of the locals on the side of the trucks, thanking them for their cooperation and support of the mining industry.
