  41. Slide 41: Integrated metallics mix for sheet products

    • The integrated metallics mix for sheet products is: – 75% pig iron (can range from 70%-85%), – 10% mill scrap and – 15% purchased scrap (bundles which is the purest scrap you can buy). • The metallics mix for a sheet mini-mill will fluctuate depending on market pricing, and varies by company, but

  42. Slide 42: The cash cost advantage depends on raw material costs
