The iron and steel industry accounts for a quarter of total carbon emissions from industry worldwide. At the same time, demand for steel is expected to increase by almost 50 percent by 2050. We provide the world with tomorrow’s resources and are setting a new world standard for the iron and steel industry of the future. With environ- mental consideration, the highest business ethics, digitalisation and innovation, LKAB will assume 2045+ a leading role in the transformation of our own LKAB’s processes and industry, and over time, create a sustainable future. products are carbon-free We contribute to vibrant communities with growth and prosperity today and for coming generations. LKAB ANNUAL AND SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2020 1 THIS IS LKAB EUROPE’S LEADING MINING AND MINERALS GROUP LKAB is an international group offering sustainable iron ore, minerals and special products. Products that end up in such things as telephones, cars, bridges and homes, making life easier for millions of people. IRON ORE FOR THE STEEL INDUSTRY In LKAB’s mines in northern Sweden more than 130,000 tonnes of iron ore are mined every day. The crude ore is then upgraded into climate-efficient iron ore products that are used in steelmaking. The products are supplied to customers mainly in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Deliveries are also made to other parts of the world. LKAB’s products offer a cleaner value chain for steelmaking. Steel made only with LKAB’s pellets results in 14 percent lower carbon emissions compared with steel produced at an average sinter-based European steelworks. EXPLORATION MINING PROCESSING LOGISTICS SEK 33.9 bn CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND Net sales in 2020 GREATER RESOURCE UTILISATION Iron and steel are society’s most recycled construction materials. Around a third of the world’s steel production is based on recycling and scrap-based processes. The iron and steel industry is working to develop processes and products centred 4,500 on resource efficiency and reduced emissions, in order to conserve our shared resources for future generations. LKAB is driving the global transformation of the The average number of employees is approximately 4,500 iron and steel industry together with customers and suppliers. Read more on pages 12–17 Sustainable mining and materials efficiency also mean utilising as much as possible of the material mined: the mine waste from upgrading the ore, residual products from other industrial processes and on through to the decommissioning of products that contain minerals. 12 Read more on pages 30–35 Operations in twelve countries 2 THIS IS LKAB USE Discovering how to mine ore and make iron was one of humanity’s great technological breakthroughs. Today iron ore production is largely used for steelmaking, and a large share of the finished steel products are then further processed by the engineering industry into end products. Iron and steel are thus all around us in our daily lives: from kitchen knives and cars to mobile phone masts, wind turbines, railways, bridges and buildings. INDUSTRIAL MINERALS PRODUCTS AND SERVICES LKAB’s core business is supplemented by a growing LKAB develops and produces technology and products industrial minerals portfolio, where the focus is on of strategic importance for its own operations, such as extracting critical minerals from mine waste. In today’s explosives, concrete, mechanical appliances and drilling society some form of mineral is used in most products technology. These products and services also create and industrial processes. value and are sold on an external market.

  • Year-End Report 2019: Strong Earnings in an Uncertain Market
    PRESS RELEASE Attachments: Date: 1 (3) 11/02/2020 Contact: Bo Krogvig, Senior Vice President Communications and Climate, LKAB Telephone: +46 (0)8 429 3445 Email: [email protected] Year-end report 2019: Strong earnings in an uncertain market Stable production and favourable market conditions enabled LKAB to increase its operating profit both for the quarter and for the full year, this despite lower delivery volumes. The market remains uncertain, however. Sales for full-year 2019 increased to MSEK 31,260 (25,892) and operating profit strengthened to MSEK 11,788 (6,869), an increase of 72 percent. The improved earnings are mainly due to higher iron ore prices and a stronger dollar exchange rate. Lower sales had an adverse effect. Operating cash flow for the full year increased to MSEK 6,981 (3,386). The improvement is mainly due to the increase in profits and to lower levels of capital expenditure. Higher expenditure on urban transformation had a negative impact. Profit for the year amounted to MSEK 10,173 (5,274) and the Board is proposing to the Annual General Meeting an ordinary dividend amounting to MSEK 6,104 (3,164). For the fourth quarter sales increased to MSEK 6,947 (6,911) and operating profit increased to MSEK 2,047 (1,900). The improved earnings are mainly a result of a stronger dollar exchange rate and lower costs for urban transformation provisions. Lower prices for highly upgraded iron ore products and lower delivery volumes during the quarter had an adverse effect. “I am pleased that we are delivering strong earnings despite an uncertain market and despite making significant investments in both the ongoing urban transformation and our projects for the future.

  • LKAB Is Looking for Talented Engineers in Mining
    LKAB is looking for talented Engineers in Mining LKAB is currently engaged in an important process to increase production, develop and streamline the existing production systems in our mines, and design new smart and fossil-free mining systems below our current main levels in our underground mines in Kiruna and Malmberget. These great challenges and opportunities will require additional talented mining engineers. Therefore, we are looking for mining engineers that are interested in being part of our journey towards the future, and are interested in technical development, innovation, and research in mining, with a focus on mine design, mining methods, rock mechanics, autonomous mining and underground logistics. Your qualifications All positions require a strong interest in identifying and overcoming the challenges that will be faced when mining below the present mining system. Qualities fundamental to these jobs are a passion for technology and problem-solving, a strong interest in suggesting and testing new solutions, and good analytical abilities. You enjoy teamwork and have good communication skills, and are interested in creating an international network of contacts. You hold a MSc or a PhD in one of the following areas: • mine design • mining methods • rock mechanics • geotechnical numerical analysis • mine seismology • autonomous mining • mining systems or • underground logistics Industrial experience is of great importance but all candidates will be considered. Those with similar backgrounds are also welcome to apply for one of the positions. You will be based in the city of Kiruna or Gällivare, close to the mining operations. Kiruna and Gällivare are situated in Swedish Lapland, above the Arctic Circle.
