Bedrock Eyes Purchase of Quebec Iron Ore Pellet Plant
Written by Sandy Williams
The United Steelworkers and Bedrock Industries announced they will begin negotiations for a new collective agreement for workers at the Pointe-Noire iron pellet plant in Quebec. Bedrock Industries notified the USW of its intention to purchase and restart the facility.
The pellet plant, formerly owned by Cliffs Natural Resources, closed in 2013 and is currently owned by SFP Pointe-Noire and under protection by the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act.
