]]> We are very happy to see that the geomorphic test site we’ve worked on together with LKAB is featured in the newest edition of LKAB Framtid. Our environmental champion Camilla Esberg does a terrific job of explaining the values created with a geomorphic design and the hopes that she has for the test site (hint: it includes an orchid…).

]]> The green and innovative north was the theme for this year’s Environmental summit hosted by Svemin. A very fitting topic as it turns out, with inspiring new projects from Boliden, Talga Group, Kaunis Iron – just to name a few. Our contribution to the conference was a talk by our CEO Matt Baida captioned “Would you visit this landscape with your grandkids?” where we turned the spotlight to the geomorphic test site at Svappavaara that we’ve designed in collaboration with LKAB.

Thank you Svemin and everyone involved for a couple of very inspiring days!

]]> Today we had the opportunity to give a talk at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid about starting a business in the midst of a pandemic and about the future of geomorphic design. A key factor for change is educating the next generation of geomorphic designers – and the future looks bright! Lots of laughs and interesting insights. Thank you for having us University Complutense Madrid.

]]> In 2018 we began our geomorphic journey in Sweden with the NITREM-project – an EIT RawMaterials funded adventure. Today we submitted our final contribution to the project – an evolved geomorphic vision for the LKAB Kiruna site. Huge thanks to our friends at TMRW for making our vision come to life!

NITREM stands for nitrogen removal and is a technology that reduces nitrogen levels in waste rock leachate. You can read all about the project here: https://nitrem.eu/nitrem/ or contact Roger B. Herbert at info@nitrem.eu
