Repparfjord is a fjord in Finnmark, Northern Norway.

In 2019 the company Nussir ASA was given permission to construct a new copper mine that would pump 2 million tons of toxic mining waste into the fjord annually. Repparfjord is on Sápmi land and water as well as a national salmon fjord. The mining construction will be of great harm to the ecosystems inside and around the fjord. It will also affect the local Sami reindeer herders, who use the grounds around the fjord as pasture.
