Iron from the Arctic
Mining inside the Polar Circle by Bertram Mycock
BBC Industrial Correspondent
Much of the iron ore that is helping Britain to maintain her rising output of steel comes from the far north of Sweden. A tiny industrial outpost, in the waste lands where the Laplander tends his reindeer herds, is the little town of Kiruna, living on and by one of the richest veins of ron ore in the world. Bertram Mycock returns from a Swedish tour to give an impression of mining in the Arctic.
