A Story of Natural Iron Ore on the Great Lakes

Описание к видео A Story of Natural Iron Ore on the Great Lakes

This saga is a tale of natural iron ore on the Great Lakes. It's discovery was in the mid-1840s but as the Lake Superior region was opened up by the Soo Locks in 1855 it began to be shipped to the lower lakes. The industrial Revolution soon raised the demand for iron and steel which increased the demand of ore. There were problems in handling, shipping and unloading the ore which were eventually solved. Yet it was the natural ore itself that was the undoing of its use.
