<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\u201cOur port is recognized internationally and has been part of our heritage for 60 years. Several generations have worked there with constant commitment to improvement. We are proud to welcome a dynamic, competent and motivated succession to continue this work. This anniversary reminds us how much we can be proud of the progress made and the promising future that lies ahead of us,\u201d declared Mapi Mobwano, Chair of the ArcelorMittal Infrastructure Canada Management Committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOperating a port on this scale brings its share of challenges, complex logistics and meteorological factors that solicit our teams\u2019 specialized expertise. Since 1961, over 1.1 billion tonnes have been shipped. In December 2020, we reached a historic record with 2,822,734 tonnes shipped during this month, beating the record of 2,669,732 tonnes set in December 2018. We are proud to work here, and I thank our teams of passionate experts who ensure its efficient operation in total safety every day,\u201d added Michael LaBrie, General Manager, Infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Handling begins at the dumper with the arrival of each train of iron ore concentrate from the Mont-Wright (Fermont) mining complex. Two railcars are unloaded at a time and an average of 245,000 railcars are unloaded each year. The concentrate is then routed either to the pellet plant to fabricate iron ore pellets, or to load the vessels for shipping to four continents. The ArcelorMittal Infrastructure Canada team, which ensures the operation of the port and the railway, is comprised of over 600 skilled workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
