Finland a Pionner in Sustainable Extractive Industries.



Finland is one of the leading mining countries in Europe. Now, Finland wants to move a step further and become the leading sustainable mining country in the world. “Action Plan for Development of Sustainable Extractive Industries” was published on April 29th 2013.
Finnish companies have made great progress in mining technology. On the other hand, we have seen that mining can cause environmental and social impacts. Few but significant environmental failures have overshadowed the success.  Of all the nations, we should know that systematic work is needed to achieve mining industry that is environmentally, socially and economically sustainable.
