lead smelter closure…

that article is from november of 2013.  this will have little or no effect on lead supplies for ammunition.  this means there will be no lead smelters operating in the united states.  it does not mean that there will be no lead smelters.  the united states will have to import the lead it needs for ammo, for batteries, for solders, and for other uses.  a little higher pricing to cover the extra shipping and handling, but no shortages.

there are very few smelters of any kind operating in the u.s.   most smelting of u. s. ores and concentrates is presently done in canada and mexico.  more jobs exported, more goods imported, higher prices, cheaper dollar.  so it goes.
