According to the newspaper, the production stop may in fact be significantly longer, and LKAB will announce later this week how long the stop will be.
The accident happened after a carrier wheel broke.
At the same time, another of LKAB’s pellet mills in Kiruna is down for maintenance during the autumn, but according to LKAB’s communications director Niklas Johansson, deliveries of pellets should not be affected, as there is stock to use.
