I received a response from the SC last night :

"The case is yet to be referred to a Justice and at this time the Supreme Court cannot indicate when a decision will be made.
No hearing is scheduled in this case"

Haven't we already known this from Vigdorian since 6 September? The case has been transferred. Then later came the info that collective illness was the reason.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

"Done: Talga gets permission for mining
Talga has received the nod from Kiruna municipality to make the graphite mine in Kiruna a reality. On Thursday, however, a decision was brought with it - namely the exclusive right to mining in the area.

2024-10-17 12:58

The notice thus gives Talga the exclusive right to mine the graphite deposit called Nunasvaara Södra K no. 1 outside Vittangi. The company has previously applied for an environmental permit and received the go-ahead from the Land and Environment Court on April 5, 2023. The decision was appealed all the way to the Supreme Court and the permit has not yet gained legal force. Kiruna municipality does not want to give either..." rbPW

The last pending permit!

"Talga gets green light for yet another mining deposit​

LULEÅ. The Mining Inspectorate grants the mining company Talga a mining concession for another graphite deposit in Vittangi.
At the same time, Vilhelmina Minerals' plans for a restart of the Stekenjokk mine in the VĂ€sterbotten mountains will be rejected.
Published: 17 October 2024, 16:06

On Wednesday, the Mining Inspectorate announced decisions in three cases concerning mining concessions for mining deposits.

A mining concession gives a mining company the right to the deposit, but not to start mining. An environmental permit is also required for this.

The Australian mining company Talga has since last year an environmental permit to mine graphite in Vittangi in Kiruna municipality. The decision has been appealed and therefore the start of production for the mine is delayed. The company is also building a factory in LuleÄ that will take care of the graphite that is mined in Vittangi.

Now the Mining Inspectorate has granted Talga a mining concession for another (?) graphite deposit in the same area. Graphite is an important raw material in electric car batteries.

"This is a high-quality graphite deposit and the applicant's tests have shown that it can be processed into materials for the production of lithium-ion batteries. The area is considered to contain a large mineral resource. The concession means good management of resources by enabling the extraction of a deposit of national interest," says Chief Mining Officer Helena Kjellson in a statement.

At the same time, Vilhemina Mineral is turned down to restart the copper mine in Stekenjokk, which was run by Boliden during the 1970s and 1980s. The mining master writes that the company has not been able to show that a mine in Stekenjokk is profitable.

However, the company is granted a mining concession for another deposit in the area, Levi, where there is copper, silver, zinc and lead."

Talga fÄr grönt ljus för Ànnu en gruvfyndighet

LULEÅ. Bergsstaten beviljar gruvbolaget Talga bearbetningskoncession för ytterligare en grafitfyndighet i Vittangi.Samtidigt blir det nej för Vilhelmina Minerals planer pĂ„ en Ă„terstart av Stekenjokk-gruvan i VĂ€sterbottensfjĂ€llen.

One important hurdle less.
I remind that we had submitted the application for the processing concession (one of the three permits) and the environmental permit at the same time. Then it was on hold for a while because of the then still outstanding Natura2000, which was granted later. Then, in my memory, the board commented that everything depends on the SC's decision. It seems to me that this is not the case and that Talga has now been granted this concession in parallel, see in bold in the next post. The process has been changed and the Natura2000 is now independent from, in our case, the SC decision.

That's the concession!!
bearbetningskoncession => Bergsstaten

Talga now has all the necessary permits and just has to wait for the plan and the SC decision. Then the head of Bergsstaten can ram the spade into the ground for the opening ceremony!

Omstridd gruva utanför Vittangi fÄr ja frÄn Bergstaten

Bergstaten sĂ€ger nu ja till att bevilja Talga AB bearbetningskoncession för grafitfyndigheten Nunasvaara utanför Vittangi i Kiruna kommun. – Fyndigheten har riksintresse, sĂ€ger bergmĂ€stare Helena Kjellson.

Yes to graphite mine outside Vittangi
Updated today 12:36Published today 12:03
The mountain state now says yes to the grant Talga AB processing concession for the graphite discovery Nunasvaara outside Vittangi in Kiruna municipality.
"The congregation has national interest," said BergmÀstare Helena Kjellson.
The area is part of Talga AB’s major graphite project, which includes four deposits. The current deposit is in an area that is designated as national interest for valuable substances or materials.
'Great mineral access'
“This is a high-quality graphite discovery and the applicant’s tests have shown that it can be processed into materials for the production of lithium-ion batteries. The area is judged to contain a large mineral resource, says Helena Kjellson.

There has been a lot of opposition to the plans for a graphite mine, including from residents in the area.
An amendment to the Minerals Act, which took effect on 1 July 2024, has enabled the mountain master to grant a processing concession even though the issue of Natura 2000 permit is not finally settled.
'Good housekeeping'
“The concession means good management of resources by enabling the extraction of a deposit of national interest,” says BergmĂ€stare Helena Kjellson.
Talga AB submitted its application to the Mountain State in 2020.
“A further authority now confirms the validity and importance of this project, incidentally at a time where the need for its own supply of graphite in the EU is becoming increasingly tangible,” said Martin Phillips, CEO of Talgas.

Here a bad joke:

"If this is the case, the next step is to apply for a processing concession. You must then prove to the miner that the deposit exists and can be mined profitably.

The application must also be accompanied by an environmental impact statement. The extraction must not be unreasonable in terms of nature conservation or reindeer husbandry, for example.

If you have got this far, it is time to apply for an environmental licence from the Land and Environment Court. If you are granted a licence, it will be subject to conditions as to how much noise, dust and other environmental impact it may cause.

Source: SGU"

They should update this as a matter of urgency.
If Talga had followed their advice and not submitted it at the same time, we could expect a valid environmental permit from 2028 on. Really bad advice or a bad joke.
