Comments from CEO Jörgen Olsson:
" Looking ahead, it is with great conviction that Copperstone will be able to take an important position as a mining company. Last year, we took decisive steps forward, and are getting closer to opening the mine, while at the same time reducing the risks associated with the project. The plan is that towards the end of 2024, after we have received the necessary permits, we will be able to start the major investments in an enrichment plant and other infrastructure. This is well in line with our timetable for a restart of the mine in 2026. I look forward to continuing to update you on our progress.”
