Boliden: Statement on changed tax conditions in Finland
Boliden (OTC:BDNNY) has responded to the Finnish government's proposed tax changes affecting mining activities. The proposal would result in increased annual costs of 20-30 MEUR for Boliden's Kevitsa copper and nickel mine, primarily due to a quadrupling of the Finnish mining tax.
The company has submitted concerns about the proposal's impact on investment climate and European raw material supplies, stating that the government's proposal lacks proper impact assessments and should be withdrawn. The Kevitsa mine produces several EU-designated critical metals, including copper, nickel, cobalt, and PGMs.
Boliden (OTC:BDNNY) ha reagito alle proposte del governo finlandese sui cambiamenti fiscali che interesserebbero l'attivit脿 mineraria. Secondo la proposta, il costo annuo per la miniera di rame e nichel di Kevitsa aumenterebbe di 20-30 MEUR, principalmente a causa di una quadruplicazione della tassazione mineraria finlandese.
L'azienda ha espresso preoccupazione per l'impatto della misura sul clima degli investimenti e sulle forniture europee di materie prime, affermando che la proposta del governo 猫 priva di adeguate valutazioni d'impatto e dovrebbe essere ritirata. La miniera di Kevitsa produce diversi metalli critici individuati dall'UE, tra cui rame, nichel, cobalto e PGM.
