Also included in this report is an unidentified iron plant located at 30 11N - 114+ 59E approximately 6 nm north of Ta-yeh, China. and approximately 7.5 nn west of the Ta-yeh Plant.

No major facilities have been erected since The unidentified iron plant includes four medium size blast furnaces and about 12 support buildings. The blast furnaces were not operating when observed on photography of and there appeared to be little rail traffic. Photo a h o revealed the plant to be at the same state as Little rail traffic was observed and the poor quality of the i prec uded identification of operating facilities.
