Alabama
What is the colour of pig iron?
the team colors for the iron pigs are sliver, red, and blue
Which is purer wrought or pig iron?
Pig iron is generally an intermediate product of the wrought iron and steel making process. Pig iron is virtually useless due to the very high impurity content. "Pure" is a strange quantification of the comparison between pig iron and wrought iron. Pig iron is pure pig iron and wrought iron is pure wrought iron if there is a "standard" for the respective materials. I'm guessing that the answer you want is that wrought iron is "more pure."
What are three raw materials to make pig iron?
iron core , coke and limestone are needed to make pig iron
