That's what Hans Kristian Schønwandt ( Former Greenland Deputy Minister, former board member of GGG and now consultant for Tanbreez) said about Kvanefjeld
"If Greenland maintains a zero tolerance towards uranium, we may well scrap all mineral exploration in South Greenland and along the West Coast"
"I respect that people may be concerned. We (GGG) have held several public meetings and try to inform about what we are doing to make sure that nothing happens. We have done as much as we could, but the opponents do not have much faith in what we say, even though we have independent organizations to look at everything with the environment and radiation. People like that don't mess with the numbers, but if people believe in witches, then... We've been very open and say all the time that people have to come to us if they have questions.”
GBB can be reassured by him
Furthermore
This thesis has been written by Ayoe Kristiansen,an Inuk who grew up with the mining discussion in Nuuk but the thesis has been written in as objective- and neautral manner as possible, in order to provide the reader with an overall indsight of the chosen subject.
''The results did not describe which mining company was viewed more positively than the other, but through semi-structured interviews, it became clear that more of the respondents did not have a clear opinion about the TANBREEZ project and they lacked available information to create a clearer opinion and familiarity with the project. The respondents are mostly opposed to both mining projects; Killavaat Alannguat (TANBREEZ) and Kuannersuit (Greenland Minerals Ltd.), however, despite this opposition, TANBREEZ has gained an exploitation license and Greenland Minerals Ltd. still has an exploration license
.........
Instead, it showed that Greenland Minerals Ltd. has prioritized stakeholder engagement to a greater extent and has held a significantly larger number of meetings with various stakeholders, which has resulted that more of the respondents having a bigger familiarity with the project. Contrary to this, TANBREEZ has not had nearly as many stakeholder meetings or public meetings, etc. More respondents explained that they did not feel they had enough information or familiarity with the firm to have a clear opinion.
