Ever wonder how steelmaking coal is used to make the steel for your bicycle or cell phone?

1. Steelmaking coal is heated in an oxygen-free oven to produce coke.
2. Coke is combined with iron ore in a blast furnace.
3. The result is steel, ready for everyday use.

Steel is everywhere - from appliances to wind turbines powering green energy.

"How does Neptune Terminals manage rail noise?

Thanks to our proximity to the Second Narrows rail bridge, trains travel directly to our site, reducing impact on the surrounding community. All trains are unit trains, carrying a single commodity, and our continuous loop track design helps minimize the need for shunting and the noise it can create. Tracks are also lubricated to further reduce squealing.

Connecting Canadian commodities to world markets from the North Shore for more than 50 years.
