PlantThe Department of Reconstruction intends to build an iron and steel plant, situate in the suburb of Canton. The plant site is now under survey. The location is an ideal one, as it affords direct supervision and other facilities: All the raw material can easily concentrate at this point as all communica- tions from here are downgrade" or downstream, thus facilitating | transportation.
Present Scheme,
Hence, from A conservative estimation, there is a reserva of 90 million tons of colding coal: and 37 million tons of iron ore. Prior to the construction of the Canton-Hankow Rallway con- necting the coal mines and the steel plant, it will be necessary to obtain coal from north China' by shipping in ateamers of about! 2,000 tons capacity and landing directly at the wharf of the plant site. The ore can be obý tained immediately by first de veloping the Wen Fu iron mine. The plant, besides having the furnace, will be equipped with coking ovens, coal washing plant and other uccessary machineries.
