Production. Tin smelting. Tin is recovered from smelting furnace smoke in a Southern operation that produces pure tin from South American ore. All the smoke from the furnace is carried by long tubes to Cottrell precipitating units as shown. Here an electrical current of 65,000 volts throws out all the tin held in the smoke, and makes a valuable addition to the supplies of tin now needed for the countless critical war uses of the United Nations

Production. Tin smelting. Emptying bags of raw tin ore from South America on a conveyor which feeds the crusher of a Southern smelter. The crusher reduces the larger particles to uniform size and discharges ore ready for the first stages of the smelting operation. The plant is already producing large quantities of tin for the countless war needs of the United Nations. Additional processing units now being added assure a much heavier output in the near future
