This is an authentic mining environment where displays, films and machines illustrate ore mining and the production of iron. The mining museum relates the century-long history of the mine. The guide will talk about modern mining and how it can cause a whole town to be moved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LKAB is facing the biggest transformation in the company\u2019s 130-year history.
