Ours here in Jersey used to go the train, that would take it to the foundaries for pulverizing into powder. It would go into moulds and shapes for gears, and other castings (Hoaganies, inc.) Now it gets loaded onto a ship in Camden, and heads straight to China. Most of our foundaries have shut down due to environmental regulation, and of course, the never ending mass exsodus to Asia. Used to be a very prosporous area on the South Jersey Waterfront. Now it looks like Detroit. I think they will eventually saw our state off of the continent, and let it drift out to sea.
