A mining town in Sweden has been forced to make a tough and unusual choice: move two miles or be destroyed.
The state-run Luossavaara-Kiirunavaara Aktiebolag (LKAB) iron ore mine which was the motivation behind the town’s construction in 1900, is now the reason it faces demolition.
As extractions extend further under Kiruna, waste rock which fills the cavities causes the ground to shift – pushing deformities ever closer to Sweden's northernmost town. If it does not move, it will simply sink into the earth.
