00:09 Material and everything that's surrounding here

00:12 came obviously from within the steel plants, the blast

00:15 furnaces, et cetera.

00:16 And this is a byproduct of all the stuff that's there.

00:21 But it's perfectly reusable and recyclable,

00:25 where you can get over 90% iron within the material

00:29 that we'd be sending on.

00:30 We're on the mound here just now,

00:35 where the vast majority of the material is.

00:39 What happens is the guys here come in, diggers, et cetera,

00:43 dumpers, stuff segregated up here,

00:46 steel's put into the dumpers.

00:47 Then it's taken to an area further down from here,

00:50 where again, that's where most of the quality control

00:53 will be done.

00:54 That will then be loaded into lorries, as I've said already.

00:58 It will then be taken to Immingham

00:59 and put onto vessels that will then

01:01 be sent all over the world.

01:02 [MUSIC PLAYING]

01:10 The most important thing will be the quality

01:14 that we have to get sent out.

01:15 So what we have to do is we have to drill down,

01:18 if you want to call it, and make sure

01:20 that we're sending out the best material that we possibly

01:24 can do.

01:24 It's an actually massive place here

01:28 that we have to dig down and get as much steel as we can

01:32 possibly out here.

01:33 [MUSIC PLAYING]

01:47 The beauty of this is there's always fresh material coming

01:50 here all the time.

01:51 So once the contract is up, it could

01:54 be that the process just carries on from there.

01:57 Because what I believe is, let's say they do 1,000 tons a week.

02:01 But there is other materials here as well

02:04 that we can actually get our hands on,

02:07 that we could use and sell all over the world as well.
