“In the 1920s, a geological survey team of Chinese and Swedes had first located iron⟳ at Baiyun Ebo, a little over 90 miles due north of Baotou. More iron⟳ was discovered there in the mid-1940s, but none was exploited at that time. Soon after 1949, a team of experts spent three years surveying the area and concluded that the iron⟳ reserves at Baiyun Ebo totaled about 1 billion tons (a figure⟳ that subsequently was raised to 1.2 billion), making it one of China’s richest iron⟳ deposits.”
