a reminder re the organic iron ore fert which the perpetually learning impaired vendetta bashers still dont understand
toddlers can mock-its easy-learning is apparently impossible for some- apparently you've never seen iron fertilizer in the stores-
iron uptake is necessary for plants as it is for humans-see the following as an example
iron fertilizer products
http://www.smart-fertilizer.com/articles/iron
i posted a maybe 150 page official survey of the iron supply in the usa a long time ago- which article pointed out at length that almost all the usa iron ore had to go through extra processes to remove a huge % of impurities-ca 50% of impurities-the usa iron ore also was not suitable for fertilizer-
i've had no reason to search out the specific impurities and %'s of vales ore to determine whether its suitable- the iron ore used in the usa for fertilizer is often the azomite which comes from the southern utah region but as noted many times its very poor in iron content- only ca 1.73% iron
if you ever do any dd re iron fert you'd know it usually comes in 2 or 20% concentrations
its not just the iron content its also the presence of small amounts of other useful and compatible minerals etc that make the particular deposit useful for fert
as Bob I and Rocketman educated readers many times OMRI- HQ in Eugene Oregon- is the largest organic (including iron)fertilizer organization in the western usa -a go between and resource for cooperatives which buy process and sell organic fertilizers.
CWRN's iron was unusual in having very few impurities harmful to iron fertilizers and Bob,whether partly or totally a result of the fact- unlike many iron producers, thus searched the matter out- and had discussions w either OMRI or fertilizer processor/buyers via OMRI- as noted in PR's- and thus apparently some of the iron fert was eventually sold to Oregon-
its a rapidly growing market especially in liberal minded areas (and also among some health minded conservative groups) like the west coast where theres a huge healthy living back to the earth movement to grow your own food organically- such organic growers would not be interested in non organic iron products- i was an organic gardener as a hobby since age 4.
There have been many tv documentaries(for those challenged people here who cant read or understand or learn from the written word)
documenting these organic food movements anywhere from inner detroit and inner LA to smaller towns and rural areas.
the expensive highly customized equipment ordered from Oregon and received May 12,2012-see PR's- was for the purpose of separating the regular iron byproducts into .5-1mm sinter iron ore and the smaller .5mm minus product suitable for organic iron fert- the plan was to ship such to someplace in the usa- PR's etc mentioned Oregon-ca August 2012 since the regular iron product was being held hostage at the port(see PR's etc)
but the July 1 2012 Pres elections were contested all the way to the Mexican Supreme court-just like the Gore Bush election was -and that Mexican legal battle took months- at the same time CWRN learned Mexico would require an iron export permit to the USA for the fert -and they couldnt get such a permit due to the national Mexican political battles
so since they had all the expenses necessary to get those various products ready and couldnt ship any of those products due to the unusual combination of Mexican political and port problems they had to stop production Oct 2012-see PR's
