Mining has been the dominant industry
in Gällivare for over a century. There are two successful
mining companies here: LKAB, a world leader in iron ore processing
combines large-scale underground mining with investment in
research and development. Boliden Mineral AB, the owner of
the Aitik mine, Europe’s largest opencast mine with
reserves of copper, gold and silver. Both companies are now
investing billions in the mines, increasing production and
ensuring a long and prosperous future for the region.
