Very emotional to see such a proud giant beast to fall in front of a new economy. Blast furnaces are realy amazing man build machines.

@northstar1950 Algoma steel is still in operation, and has been for 110 years. They still have 2 operational furnaces, #6 and #7, with #7 being one of the biggest in North America. I'm almost positive that all of the scrap from these antique furnaces would have stayed at Algoma and been recycled in the steelmaking process.

That's a Video of #3 and #4 Blast furnace coming down. I worked for Algoma for 8 years. #5 Furnace was built during World War II, so I'd say #3 and #4 went up and online sometime in the late 20's and early 30's.

The #5 Blast Furnace has a interesting story behind it. The Canadian Government needed more iron for the war effort so they made a deal with Algoma Steel. The government would shoulder all the cost of construction and operation plus pay a small profit for every tonne of iron produced from the furnace and 5 years after the end of hostilities, Algoma would own the furnace out rite. It was taken down about a year after #3 and #4.

Sorry, I'm not sure how old the vessel were. Pretty antique by today's standards.

Absolutely amazing stuff. Such a shame these beasts had to go. Really sad they couldn't be preserved but interesting vid. Thanks for sharing.

100% of the steel in these "old beasts" was recycled within 1000'.... pretty good conservation....
thanks for the comments..... lg
