Ann: Additional information requested for Faboliden test mining, page-2

So they've given us six weeks to respond and then it will probably take the CAB another six weeks to conclude they have to issue the permit, so if we get it by the end of June we'll be lucky.
The govts. of Sweden and Finland say they encourage the mining industry but they then take forever to review documentation lodged for permits and renewals. You don't mind them taking the highest regard for the environment but that shouldn't extend to them just sitting on paperwork until the applicant has to take other measures to get them into action. It's not how business should work. Meanwhile we are being a good employer by paying out some $2mil a quarter for Svartliden staff to sit around waiting for Faboliden to start-up.
Patient, I must be patient.
