LKAB can replace Europe’s imports of phosphorus ore from Russia.

The new Per Geijer deposit contains up to eight times as much phosphorus compared to the orebodies currently mined by LKAB. With circular extraction of phosphorus and rare earth elements as by-products from iron ore mining, LKAB can potentially replace all imports of phosphorus to Europe from Russia. Phosphorus is one of three nutrients in mineral fertiliser and is necessary for our food production.
