Report summary
Cleveland-Cliffs' Burns Harbor plant is a major supplier of flat rolled steel to US' automotive sector. The facility produces a mix of hot rolled coil, cold rolled coil, galvanised sheet and plate products. Burns Harbor has two blast furnaces (BFs), "C" and "D", though just "D" is currently operational. On 28 September 2020 Cleveland-Cliffs and ArcelorMittal USA entered into a definitive agreement whereby the former acquired almost all of ArcelorMittal’s operations in the US for approximately US$1.4 billion. Burns Harbor was included in the transaction. In March 2020, Burns Harbor's previous owner ArcelorMittal announced the idling of BF "C" following the coronavirus crisis. At the time of writing, although no official news emerged, according to the Association for Iron & Steel (AIST) BF "C" produced 1.8 Mt of hot metal in 2021.
