Last night we received information that a pickup had driven on the wrong side of the road and hit one of our trucks in a head-on collision north of Masugnsbyn.

Yesterday evening, on 8 January at 21.00 hours, we drove the 200th train of iron ore to Narvik.

“Everyone has a right to function differently – Musikhjälpen 2018” (Music Aid), is broadcast from Lund this year. Kaunis Iron is taking part by donating money 

Early this morning we received the tragic news that one of our workers had been killed in a single vehicle accident

Kaunis Iron AB intends to apply for a new permit under the Environmental Code for the company’s mining and ore processing operations in Pajala Municipality.

There is more to Kaunis Iron than the newly re-started iron ore mine, the company is in fact taking a position as the biggest haulage company in Norrbotten.

Today, Thursday morning, the ship Golden Ruby docked in Narvik harbour, where she is now being loaded with 72,000 tonnes of concentrate from the mine in Kaunisvaara.

The Environmental and Planning Board in Kiruna Municipality has carried out checks on Kaunis Iron’s ore trains from Pitkäjärvi to Narvik and the results are approved, in other words, satisfactory. 

There was no departure to wave off, and no ringing bell when we last planned this, because of the big fire in the snow gallery. However we did drive an ore train from Pitkäjärvi

The opening salvo has been fired and it is time for the first truck to make its journey from Kaunisvaara to the railway in Pitkäjärvi.
