Selected Metal-production Facilities, 2003
Abstract
This map depicts 62 metal-production facilities that operated for any period during 2003. There are no facilities shown in the Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Prince Edward Island or Nova Scotia.
The facilities have been classified into four broad groups of metals:
- 11 Aluminum smelters
- 23 facilities that produce ferrous-metal products, including iron pellets (3), ferroalloys (4) and steel (16).
- 4 precious-metal processors, including precious-metal refineries (2) and uranium processors (2).
- 24 facilities that produce and recycle base metals, primarily copper, nickel, zinc, lead, cobalt, molybdenum and magnesium.
Additional information about metal mining is divided into three sections:
