Tacora Resources Inc. Completes Acquisition of Sydvaranger
Tacora Resources Inc. 102 NE 3rd Street Suite 120 Grand Rapids, MN 55744 Tel: +1 218-999-7018 NEWS RELEASE ______________________________________________________________ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tacora Resources Inc. Completes Acquisition of Sydvaranger GRAND RAPIDS, MN, January 14, 2021 – Tacora Resources Inc. (“Tacora” or the “Company”) today announced that it has completed the acquisition of Sydvaranger Mining AS and its subsidiaries (“Sydvaranger”), an iron ore mine and processing plant located in Sør-Varanger, Norway. The acquisition of Sydvaranger provides Tacora with a 4 million tonne per year shovel-ready expansion opportunity and geographical diversification in a tier 1 jurisdiction. Sydvaranger operated from 1910 to 1997, and then from 2009 to 2015 producing high grade iron ore concentrate, with an iron content of 68%, for pelletizing operations. The Tschudi Group, a Norwegian shipping and logistics company, has been involved with the Sydvaranger Mine since 2006. In 2016, the Tschudi Group re-acquired the Sydvaranger assets and has since focused its activities on completing a feasibility study and preparing for restarting the operations. Sydvaranger’s high quality, low impurity, magnetite iron ore concentrate has significant environmental and cost benefits for steel producers and pelletizing operations, including increased blast furnace productivity, reduced slag volumes, lower CO2 emissions per tonne of steel produced and reduced energy requirements for pelletizing, amongst others. Thierry Martel, the President and CEO of Tacora -
Markedet Overtar
RAPPORT 2:2020 O Roar Eilertsen og Paul Bjerke Markedet overtar Konsekvenser av jernbanereformen 2 Forord Valget i 2021 vil få enorm betydning for utviklingen av norsk jernbane- sektor. Hvis de blå vinner, vil jernbanereformens omfattende oppsplitting og markedsgjøring fortsette. Hvis de rødgrønne vinner vil politikken bli lagt om, og videre fordyrende og byråkratiserende konkurranseutsetting bli stoppet. Med mer høyrepolitikk er konsekvensene for de mange tusen ansatte i sektoren usikker, og det er store sjanser for at passasjerene må betale mer for å reise med tog. I denne rapporten belyser vi både hva som har skjedd så langt etter at reformen ble innført fra 1. januar 2017, hvilke planer som foreligger, og erfaringer med tilsvarende politikk i andre land. Og vi viser hvordan de mange titalls milliarder kronene som hvert år bevilges til jernbaneformål brukes. Rapporten konsentrerer seg om persontrafikken med tog. Gods med tog ble konkurranseutsatt fra 2008, som følge av EUs jernbanepakke 2, og blir ikke berørt her. I arbeidet med rapporten har vi snakket med ledelse og tillitsvalgte i jernbanen, vi har studert budsjettdokumenter og årsrapporter, og vi sammenfatter internasjonal forskning på erfaringer med konkurranse- utsetting av jernbanen. Tusen takk til alle som har stilt opp, brukt tid på oss og delt kunnskap med oss. Rapporten er utarbeidet av undertegnede i De Facto – Kunnskapssenter for fagorganiserte på oppdrag fra Norsk Jernbaneforbund. Takk til ledelsen i NJF, som på en utmerket måte har lagt til rette for arbeidet vårt. Vi håper at rapporten kommer til nytte i fagbevegelsens arbeid med å utvikle en framtidsrettet politikk for jernbanen, uten den ansvarspulverisering, ressurssløsing og usikkerhet som dagens jernbanepolitikk medfører. -

Klagen fra Green Cargo av 31. mars 20161 gjelder Bane NORs beslutning av 8. mars 2016 om tildeling av ruteleier som ble tilgjengelige som følge av Cargolink AS (Cargolink) sin markedsuttreden i mars samme år. Klagen retter seg spesifikt mot Bane NORs tildeling av det ene av to tilgjengeliggjorte ruteleier på strekningen Alnabru-Trondheim (det omstridte ruteleiet) til CargoNet AS (CargoNet) fremfor Green Cargo. Tilsynet beklager at det har tatt lang tid å behandle saken. Green Cargo har i klagen anført to grunnlag for hvorfor det omstridte ruteleiet skulle ha vært tildelt Green Cargo. For det første mener Green Cargo at tildelingen «ikke er foretatt i henhold til gjeldende fordelingskriterier».2 For det andre mener Green Cargo at beslutningen medfører en «klar forverring av konkurransesituasjonen» på strekningen Alnabru – Trondheim.3 Klagen er fremsatt i medhold av den tidligere gjeldende fordelingsforskriften § 9-4, som etter første ledd oppstilte adgang til å klage til tilsynet over blant annet tildeling av infrastrukturkapasitet. -

Research Update: Norwegian Government-Owned Airport Operator And Air Navigation Services Provider Avinor Rated 'AA-'; Outlook Stable Overview • We believe Avinor AS, the Norway-based airport network operator and air navigation services provider fully owned by the Norwegian state, has a "very high" likelihood of extraordinary government support in the event of financial distress. • We assess Avinor's stand-alone credit profile at 'bbb+', based on the group's "strong" business risk profile and "significant" financial risk profile. • We are assigning our 'AA-' long-term rating and our 'A-1+' short-term rating to Avinor. • The stable outlook reflects our view that the likelihood of government support will remain "very high" and that the group will be able to maintain its rating-commensurate credit measures in the medium term amid weaker economic conditions and accelerated capital spending. Rating Action On July 4, 2013, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'AA-' long-term corporate credit rating and its 'A-1+' short-term corporate credit rating to the Norwegian government-owned airport network operator and air navigation services provider Avinor AS. -
