History
Early history (1887-1926)
A significant iron deposit was discovered near the town of Impiö in 1885 - at the time one of Valkea's largest. In 1887, the Impiö Mining Company (Impiö Kaivosyhtiö) was founded and set up a mine in the area. Over the course of the 1890s, the Impiö mine became one of the Kingdom of Valkea's most productive mines, and the town of Impiö quickly grew in size over the next few decades. Copper and zinc deposits were discovered in 1897 and 1903, respectively, which further enhanced the mine's economic value.
Mineral exploration accelerated significantly in the wake of the Great Astyrian War, as iron from the Impiö mine was exported to both sides. However, production output fell in a few short years due to the outbreak of the Valkean Civil War.
Transition to oil and nationalization (1926-1976)
In 1926, Impiö surveyors struck oil in the Sorkkaharju oil field outside of Kovanen.
