Last week we exhibited at The Arable Event as gold sponsors.     The team had a great day showcasing the benefits our #Calcifert range can bring to the agricultural industry.   Mark Tripney was on hand to discuss the results of the plot trial where Calcifert Sulphur was used with fertiliser to show an improvement in Nitram uptake. Britney Clark, Sales Manager for Calcifert & Filler said: "it showed the effectiveness of Calcium and Sulphur fertilisation. And how Sulphur levels need to be reconsidered when selecting fertilisers for the season."   Arj Parekh, Cerys Gardiner CMktr, Nichola Whitfield

We have reached a historic milestone at our Malmberget mine, near Gällivare, with the inauguration of a new mine entrance! "Relocating a mine entrance is a rare event. Since April 2022, our team has constructed a 536-meter tunnel from level 278 to the surface. It's a proud moment to open this new entrance. This significant achievement was made possible by our dedicated team. It is truly gratifying to inaugurate this new entrance today,” shared Monika Sammelin, Area Manager at LKAB Malmberget last week at the opening. The ribbon was symbolically cut by a fully electric Scania Heavy Tipper truck, showcasing our commitment to sustainability. This truck is among several electric vehicles being tested for future mine electrification. Additionally, we opened a new workshop area with an environmental facility, crusher repair shop, and pipe workshop. These developments are essential steps toward our vision of a carbon dioxide-free and sustainable production for tomorrow. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/dGVyHBZb
