Sudbury Nickel Plant Ontario Canada, 1960s - Film 99016

Amateur home movie to Ontario, Canada in 1960. View from a coach window towards a processing plant and area of mined land. The group visit the Inco nickel smelter in Sudbury. The people stand beside the coach wearing white hard hats. A furnace burning and molten metals. The group exit the factory. View of smoke belching from a large chimney. The visitors stand around a bit more chatting amongst themselves, before a few more scenes of liquid metal being poured from a hopper. A further view from the coach window as the group leave the plant. A train pulling cargo carts arrives at the processing plant. View from the moving vehicle with the large factory in the distance and residential housing in the foreground. Smoking chimneys. Another scene of molten produce, this time spilling in unison from a row of hoppers being tipped over. The red molten liquid forms unusual patterns as it flows downhill, which initially look like large molten human forms. This is a slag pour.
