Visiting Kiruna – the largest iron ore mine in the World
The view of the town is dominated by two mountains – Luossavaara – which was an open pit until the 1960s, and Kiirunavaara, hiding the largest underground iron ore mine in the world (Figure 1). Kiruna is a small miners' town with 17 000 inhabitants, most of whom are connected to the mining company. Figure 1.
