摘要: Abstract This article considers the environmental impacts and governance framework of domestic international supply iron, zinc, copper nickel concentrates smelted refined in Finland. The metals industry country is heavily dependent on imported concentrates, research thus focused defining level related to mining mineral processing abroad, change between 2000 2010. estimations are based waste minerals CO 2eq emissions, quality set indicators measuring different aspects governance. total amount emissions metal decreased over ten-year period. At same time, improved all concentrate groups except nickel. Ore grade, mine type transportation distance appear be most influential factors impacts. results suggest that origin can have a noticeable effect concentrates.
