US Steel Keetac to Reopen
Written by Sandy Williams
US Steel announced today that it plans to restart its Keetac iron ore plant in Keewatin, Minn.
In a press release on Thursday, US Steel said new iron ore pellet agreements with third party customers prompted an adjustment of its iron ore pellet production to take advantage of the new opportunities. One of those opportunities includes “supplying US Steel’s former Canadian operations,” said US Steel spokesperson Erin DiPietro.
