Our transformation

The global climate transition has changed demand and requirements for LKAB. LKAB will set a new world standard for mining, develop carbon-free processes and extract critical minerals.

Through the transformation we are increasing the value of our products, while contributing to a reduced climate impact.
We contribute to increased self-sufficiency of critical raw materials – for Sweden and Europe.
We have secured mineral assets that guarantees the future for ourselves and our region for a long time.

Our strategy

Based on our vision and mission, our strategy paves the way for zero carbon-dioxide emissions from our own processes and products by the year 2045.

Environmental permits crucial

Our chances of succeeding with the green transition rely on faster, more efficient, and more predictable permitting processes.

New deposit in Kiruna

Record-breaking deposits of ore, critical minerals and phosphorus in a new mine secure assets for the next 40 years.

Our contribution to the climate

Our mining and processing are already among the most climate-efficient in the world, but we will improve even further for the future of our planet.
