The Saami people, an indigenous group who inhabit areas of northern Norway and Sweden, Finland and the Murmansk Oblast of Russia, have been particularly vocal, arguing that the mine will disturb reindeer herders and damage the local environment, in particular polluting the fjord in which the tailings will be deposited.

Finland, Sweden and Norway have a long history of mineral exploration, mining and metal production. Finland's mining industry is composed of the extraction and processing of metallic minerals and industrial minerals as well as steel production. The country has large deposits of chromite, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, nickel, zinc, limestone and ...

which are vital for the livelihood of forest-dependent communities. The Sami people, native to the boreal regions of Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the Russian Federation, have lived in these forests for centuries and used them for reindeer breeding9. Consequently, by placing sustainability and resource-efficiency at the core of forest management

Also called boreal forests, the Taiga is divided into northern, central, and southern regions. Taiga forests belong to vast expanses of northern parts of Europe, Asia, and North America, along with the southern Rocky Mountains and Sierra alpine regions of the western US, the Japanese islands and the Pacific coast of North America.

We report here the results of a systematic mapping of research evidence of the impacts of metal mining in Arctic and boreal regions.

We review forest preference research carried out in Finland, Sweden and Norway, and discuss these findings in relation to bioenergy production in boreal forest ecosystems.

In this article, we take a closer look at Norway, Sweden and Finland. All 3 of these countries have gold, and of course some areas are much better than others. Long winters mean that most prospectors head out when the weather warms and the creeks and rivers open up. Gold Mines of Norway
