Nordic Iron is working on several fronts to prepare for the upcoming mining operations. Among other things, control programs are underway for well monitoring where, for example, the level of the groundwater surface is continuously measured to follow the changes before and after the mine has opened. Documentation of ancient monuments and compensation programs for natural values are examples of other areas.
