💗 This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, our Mesabi Metallics family came together for a special pink chalk blast to honor survivors, remember those we’ve lost and stand alongside the families across the Iron Range whose lives have been touched by cancer.

We were proud to contribute to Angel Fund, a local nonprofit providing financial assistance to Northeastern Minnesota families facing cancer.

Our community is at the heart of everything we do, and we’re grateful to stand alongside an organization that brings hope and support to our neighbors during some of life’s most difficult moments.

Want to help make a difference? Consider donating to Angel Fund and help ensure local families facing cancer know they’re not alone.

Our selection of Midrex for the direct reduction component of our planned integrated steelmaking complex in Iowa marks another step forward in our vision for large-scale, DRI-based steel production.

This collaboration reinforces our commitment to innovation, growth, and strengthening the future of the U.S. steel industry.

A major investment in the future of American steelmaking.

Mesabi Metallics has selected Midrex for the direct reduction component of its planned electric arc furnace-based integrated steelmaking complex in Iowa, USA.

The project will utilize MIDREX Flex technology to produce hot direct reduced iron (HDRI) for direct feed to adjacent electric arc furnaces, as well as hot briquetted iron (HBI).

The project represents:

✔ Up to 10 million tons of annual steel production at full buildout
✔ One of the world's largest DRI complexes
✔ Flexible HDRI and HBI production
✔ Continued growth of DRI-based steelmaking

Building on a relationship spanning more than 30 years between Midrex and the Essar Group, this selection marks another significant milestone in their long-standing partnership.
