foundry magazine article, page-5

Great stuff Peppie, I especially liked the following comment from the article:
“We did initial testing and started mixing zircon with our chromite, and then South African chromite with our chromite in different ratios, to see how they would perform. Would ours be a value-added?” Smith recalled. “And, we realized that ours would not be a replacement for South African chromite; it’s a value-added (product, compared) to South African. So, we started playing with ratios, and then we started looking at how this chromite performs against zircon and asking, “Could it be a complete replacement for zircon in some applications? And the testing that’s going on right now has proved that.”
Holding with both hands.
