What are the stages involved in converting iron ore into steel?
There are 3 stages in converting iron ore into steel.
Stage I
Iron Ore, coal and lime stone are put in a blast furnace and melted to extract the metal. This process is called smelting.
Stage II
The iron that is extracted from the furnace is refined. This extract is called steel.
Stage III
The steel is then cast as billets or slabs. These billets and slabs are used by other Industries as raw material.
