Billboard with “Cozy Friday” tableau Comments: Translated text: What would cozy Friday be without metals and minerals? Whether it’s the everyday grind or cozy Friday –we need metals and minerals. And they are essential in the transition to a sustainable society, for example in wind farms. In addition, more metals can be mined in Sweden, where we are building the world’s most climate-smart mining industry.
