MINING. Sweden is rich in metals, especially iron, but not fossil fuels. Large iron ore deposits are mined at Kiruna in northern Sweden, worked by LKAB (Luosssavaara-Kiirunavaara AB), a state-owned company. Aitik in the Kiruna area has Sweden’s largest copper mine, owned by Trelleborgskoncern (Boliden). Lead, zinc, gold, silver, tungsten, arsenic, feldspar, and uranium are also mined. The copper, silver, and iron ore deposits in central Sweden have either been largely exhausted or are too costly to extract.
