Description: This photograph, taken at Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company's Indiana Harbor works coke plant, depicts piles of crushed limestone in the foreground and the plant in the distance. Coke plants produce coke from coal so that it can be used as a fuel in a blast furnace. Blast furnaces are used to smelt iron ore with coke to produce pig iron. This is the first step of steel production that occurs at mills. View on Ohio Memory.
