  • Madison, IL · Mill Converter

    Rolling of magnesium plate and sheet at Madison, Illinois. Recorded from the previously verified Madison casting and rolling operations and the plate and sheet product on file; the alloys page does not name rolling as a process. Every domestic magnesium converter is working imported or recycled metal, because there is no operating US primary producer.
