In 1970,a limestone mine located in Chuanshan,Zhenjiang city,was under the administration of the group. However,after the establishment of Shanghai Baoshan Iron and Steel,the mine became a supplier of Baoshan Iron &Steel instead. The administration of the mine was also transferred to the metallurgical bureau of Zhenjiang city. [7]
