12:46 AM EDT, 08/27/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Nordic Mining (NOM.OL) said Tuesday that nongovernmental organizations Naturvernforbundet and Natur og Ungdom filed for an injunction to prohibit the company from depositing tailings in the Førdefjord in Norway. The filing follows an Aug. 12 ruling by the Borgarting Court of Appeal in favor of the NGOs in their case against the Norwegian state, in which they argued that key permits for the company's Engebø rutile and garnet project are null and void. Nordic Mining said it plans to "vigorously defend" itself against the claim.
