Iron Ore Riches Spur Southern Steel Hope
Prof Shaler argues Appalachian and Southern districts hold abundant iron ores near coal seams, reducing transport to smelters. Ore deposits in Shenandoah and Roanoke valleys span Virginia to Alabama, with Lake Superior ore needing far greater fuel distance. Southern ore is easy to mine, forming true bodal deposits dissolved by percolating water, and can be processed with existing methods inclining to open-air mining year-round.
