Regeringens proposition till riksdagen med förslag till lagstiftning om gruvmineralskatt

The Finnish government has submitted a proposal to parliament (Eduskunta) for legislation on a tax on mining minerals. Based on the metadata alone, the bill appears to set out how mineral extraction is taxed, with reference to the taxable value of ores and metals, world market prices, and the costs of mining operations. The full text was not reviewed, so the exact rates and rules are unconfirmed. The proposal would most likely affect companies that hold mining permits and extract metal ores and other minerals in Finland. It could also matter for local authorities and the public, since mining tax revenue and the regulation of mining activity are closely linked.
