Many global mining experts predict that at current consumption rates, the planet's economy over the next 70 years will undermine the current known reserves, which are likely to consume half of the world's current metals. Shortly, increasing dependence on essential mineral imports, plus global competition for scarce resource resources, will increase prices and bargain for exporting countries.

When the concentration of aluminum in the environment increases, it has severe effects on human health. Water-soluble aluminum is dangerous. Particles of aluminum that dissolve in water are called ionic particles, for example, aluminum chloride. Other ways to increase the amount of aluminum in the body are to breathe and make skin-to-skin contact with aluminum.

STEEL INDUSTRY IN IRAN. In 1938, an agreement was reached, after much study and preparation, between Iran and a German consortium (Demag-Krupp) for the construction of two blast furnaces with a daily production of 150 tons, a steel factory, a rolling mill, a wire-drawing mill, a foundry, a wrought ironworks, a coke crusher, a power plant, and some ancillary industries such as a lime plant, an ammonia and benzol plant, and a tar distillation plant. The original site was planned to be south of Tehran near the cement works, but Karaj was chosen instead, because of its more suitable water supply. In 1939, Reżā Shah laid the first foundation stone, and, although work proceeded as planned, the works were still unfinished in 1941 when the Allies invaded Iran. Since then, “more has been said and less done about a steel industry than any other industry in Iran” (Echo of Iran, 1965, p. The project was only realized in 1963, when an agreement was reached between a private Iranian and a Swedish company to build the scrap metal steel mill. Meanwhile, the army’s munitions factories acquired a five-ton foundry and the Iranian State Railways a 10-ton per day electric arc foundry. It produced mainly cast-iron pipes (Echo of Iran, 1963, pp. The basis for future steel production in Iran was laid by the signing of a contract with the USSR in 1965 to finance and erect a steel plant in Isfahan (National Iranian Steel Company, NISC). Repayment of the loan was done through deliveries of natural gas from Iran to the USSR. The private-sector Iran National Steel Industries Group (INSIG, Goruh-e Melli-ye Ṣanʿati-ye Fulād-e Irān) erected a second 85,000 tons per year rolling mill also at Ahvāz, in 1969, and ordered a third one 120,000 tons per year) to produce structural steel by rolling imported, semi-finished steel products. Later the two plants were referred to as Navard Iran. Two other bloom plants for processing sponge iron (400,000 tons capacity) were erected in 1972 by the Industrial Group; they were nationalized after the Islamic revolution and are now managed by the National Iranian Steel Industries Company (NISCO). The development of new methods of direct reduction processing technology provided a viable alternative for the government, given the fact that Iran had rich resources of natural gas and various required raw materials, in particular, iron ore. After the Islamic Revolution in 1979, fundamental changes took place in the Iranian Steel Industry Organization. The two state-owned companies were merged, and NISCO was affiliated to the former Ministry of Mines and Metals, and the Ministry of Industries and Mines was established. NISCO now directs and supervises the Iranian steel industry from the exploration stage of its relevant raw materials up to the marketing of its products in domestic and international markets. During the Iran-Iraq war (1980-88) the steel industry development lost its impetus to some extent. One of the first new projects was the construction of the Iran Alloy Steel Plant (Fulādhā-ye Alyāji-ye Irān) at Yazd, which started in 1988 and became operational in 1998. Another new project was the Mobarakeh Steel Complex (Mojtameʿ-e Fulād-e Mobāraka), which is the biggest industrial project in Iran. The Mobarakeh Steel Company is affiliated to NISCO and is also the first integrated flat steel production plant in the Islamic Republic of Iran based on DRI [“direct reduced iron” technology. The expansion contract was signed between Iran and three Italian companies on a buy-back basis. see Internet Source 1; for the steel plants of Iran in general, see Internet Source 6). 5 slab and lime calcining plant, was signed with a consortium of SMS Demag AG, Iran International Engineering Company (IRITEC) and its subsidiary registered in Italy, Irasco. direct reduction iron facility was signed by Mines & Metals Engineering GmhH (MME). Not only port access and capacity are important for Iran’s steel industry, but also the railway system. World steel production in 2000 reached 850 million tons, of which Iran’s share was 6. 7 million tons; Iran then ranked twenty-third among countries, and twenty-first in 2004 (see International Iron and Steel Institute for the respective years). NISCO reported that the annual production of steel in Iran for 1382 (2003/04) was estimated at 8. 13 million tons—the first time that Iran’s steel production would surpass eight million tons. This meant that Iran was able to satisfy 70 percent of domestic demand, while at the same time exporting some 1. NISCO has also taken steps toward upgrading the quality of its products and improving the management system with due consideration to environmental protection and better working conditions (NISCO-Iran; see Internet Source 5). Iran was scheduled to produce some 8. This is because, unlike many countries in the world which use concrete and bars, Iran uses iron slates in construction, which also adds to the instability of its buildings. Despite all, Iran managed to export 1. Iran’s steel is capable of competing with European products due to its quality and price. The prospects of Iran’s steel industry seem favorable due to its large and rich raw material resource base, its rich and cheap energy resources, human capital and technical know-how (as to the latter see Noorbakhsh, pp. Iran not only added new capacity during the last 20 years that significantly reduced the import bill and even made export of steel products possible, but it also developed its own technological capacity. Iran, for example, developed its own direct reactivation method of producing iron with 96 percent which works more effectively than the three other conventional methods.

US hits Iran with further steel, aluminum, copper trade sanctions. US aims to stop Iran importing metals for nuclear, military purposes. Iran source says new sanctions not taken seriously. London — The US has broadened the scope of its sanctions on steel, stainless steel, aluminum and copper trade with Iran in a move to stop imports into the country of specialized metals that it says could be used in Iran's nuclear, ballistic missile and military programs, deemed by the US to pose a grave threat to international peace and security. Most of the products had already been targeted by secondary sanctions against Iran, previously published by the US. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo late July 30 announced the State Department has identified 22 specific materials that it alleges are used in connection with Iran's nuclear, military, or ballistic missile programs. "Those who knowingly transfer such materials to Iran are now sanctionable pursuant to Section 1245 of the Iranian Freedom and Act," Pompeo said in a statement. The sanctions also cover trade in graphite and raw or semi-finished metals which may be used in Iran's construction sector, which according to the US is controlled by Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). No official reaction was available from Iran on July 31 due to a local holiday. However an informed Iranian observer told S&P Global Platts that "the new sanctions are not taken very seriously because all of the metals were previously under the OFAC [Office of Foreign Assets Control] sanctions. Supply and trade of steel, aluminum, graphite and coal with Iran have been restricted by US secondary sanctions from August 2019 but Iran's metals and minerals export trade has continued since then; in fact its steel exports have increased as they are competitive. The 22 products included on the new sanctions list, deemed to be used in connection with Iran's nuclear, military, or ballistic missile programs, are: aluminum 319, 1100, 225, 6061, 6063, 6082 and 7075; aluminium bronze alloy UNS C63600 (CDA alloy 636); aluminium oxide (Al2O3); steel 302, 4130; stainless steel 321 and 316; A877 steel and A228 steel, 350 maraging steel (also known as maraging steel350); 300 maraging steel (also known as maraging steel300); UNS Cl7200-TDO1 (beryllium copper); UNS C37000 – CuZn38Pb1; tungsten copper and aluminum powder with purity above 98%, Pompeo stated. No information was given on who the current suppliers of these products to Iran are, and the Iranian observer consulted said he was unable to specify origins, as this is classified information within Iran. Following the previous imposition of secondary metals trade sanctions, the US stepped up its sanctions on Iran in the steel area in January 2020, imposing sanctions on exports from most of Iran's steelmakers and international steel traders which have links to Iran. Iranian sources said at the time that Iran's steel and metals trade had carried on largely as normal in spite of both of these sets of sanctions, as much of the metals trade with Iran is with Chinese, other Asian and Middle Eastern parties which have not considered the US sanctions to be applicable to their activities. Much international metals trade with Iran is channeled and paid for via traders in offshore locations including Dubai, with those involved reportedly often turning a blind eye to details on suppliers and end-customers, so long as the product is of acceptable quality and price.
