As a result of the sharp decline in the price of iron ore Northland Resources today announced that they intend to halt operations indefinitely. The purpose of this measure is in anticipation of an improved market environment, create time to continue to work to secure a long-term funding and to complete discussions with financial as well as industrial investors.

- For this reason, we will initiate a dialogue with Northland to clarify how this will affect the agreement between the parties relating to the transportation of iron ore concentrate by truck. Based on this, we will then take steps to minimize the costs of managing personnel and trucks, says Peab’s President and CEO Jesper Göransson.
