Iron Act
[edit]A previous author has seriously misunderstood the implications of the Act. I have recently substantially amended the article on that Act, and have therefore merely deletd the unwarranted claims made here about it (and also repeated in an older version of that article.

Content and anachronism
[edit]- Is it appropriate for this article to contain a long discussion of the chemistry of the blast furnace which appears more fully in that article?
- The article refers to the blast being heated in a Cowper stove. However the furnace was built long before hot blast was invented in about 1829. Would it not be better for the references to this to be deleted? If the furnace had a cowper stove, no doubt the date when it was built could usefully be added.

- Another objection: what are blister steel and crucible steel doing in this article? In England these were invariably made from Swedish (or occasionally Russian) bar iron, almost never English, becasue it was not pure enough. I suspect thsi would also be the case in America. In any event, is there any evidence of the use of those steelmaking processes at Cornwall Iron Furnace? Peterkingiron (talk) 22:26, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
Iron ore mines in Pa.
[edit]Iron ore mines in Pa. I have little bits here & there about gold recovered from Iron mines in Pa in the case of Carnegie he is said to have recovered enough to pay for the entire operation. Also I read that the Cornwall mine also recovered significant amounts of gold. I also believe that when you find gold you usually find Silver. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockne1865 (talk • contribs) 02:49, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
