Iron Ore??
it is mined so that people can make steel
Steel is not mined directly; instead, iron ore is mined and then processed into steel through a series of steps that involve refining and combining the iron ore with other elements. Iron ore can be found in various countries, with some of the largest producers being Australia, Brazil, and China.
Steel is made by melting iron ore in a blast furnace and combining it with carbon and other elements to create an alloy. Iron ore is mined from the earth in various locations around the world, with major producers including Australia, Brazil, China, and India. After refinement and processing, steel is produced in steel mills and factories across the globe.
Yes. Iron is found underground in the form of iron ore which is mined. But I think you should already know this by now.
The iron ore around here gets strip mined, loaded into rail cars, taken to the dock where it is loaded onto iron ore ships, and transported to the steel mills via the Great Lakes.
Iron, steel, and precision equipment.
Steel is not an ore, it's man-made (the main raw material is iron).
It reduces the cost of transporting Iron to a Steel manufacturing plant.
Steel does not come out of the ground. It is the Iron Ore which is a Major Raw Material in Steel Preparation Process that is mined out of the earth. The mining of iron ore from the earth is a process in itself.
A quarry is a pit from which substances are mined. Iron ore is a substance found in the ground that contains iron. So, to obtain iron ore it is necessary to dig it up (mine it). One way this is done is to mine it from a quarry.

Pig iron is made in the steel manufacturing process by smelting iron ore in a blast furnace with coke and limestone. The coke acts as a fuel and reduces the iron ore to produce molten iron, while the limestone helps remove impurities. The resulting pig iron is then further processed to make steel.
