Abstract
This paper is based on a study on the industrial future
of mining and refining industries, which was conducted
for the Bothnian Green Logistic Corridor (BGLC) project.
Corridor development is the starting-point for this
paper, but the main focus is on considerations combining
the development of transport corridors to its role and
boost for European mine related industrial future. As a
result, frameworks for mining and refining industry
related decision-making and development are presented.
The main issues affecting the decision-making are markets
and business environment, and logistics and transport
issues including infrastructure. Environmental and energy
issues, and interests and interaction of different
stakeholders also influence. The role of corridor
development for the European industrial future is also
discussed. BGLC can be considered as a backbone in the
development of infrastructure based on industrial needs.
BGLC combines, as the missing south-north.
