According to the permit, production at Svartön in Luleå will use mining waste.

"The activities shall contribute to increased self-sufficiency in critical raw materials, both in Sweden and within the EU," the court wrote, having examined the permit application over 17 months.

The industrial park has been classified as a "special priority activity" by the EU.

"Since this is a completely new operation, temporary conditions apply to emissions to air and water pending further investigations ordered by the court," the court wrote.
