Heath and Company 0-669-73502-7 72-9410 623270 525-526 https://archive.org/details/introductiontoch0000unse_m2l7/page/525/ Most of Manchuria’s large deposits of coal and iron ore are also in or near the Liao valley, including the famous coal mines at Fu-shun, some thirty miles east of Mukden, another large coal deposit a hundred miles to the west at Fou-hsin, and a large reserve of iron ore at Anshan, fifty miles to the south. Anshan became the major iron and steel center under the Japanese, and still is so; the ore there is relatively low grade, and is hence expensive to move to the coal; coal accordingly moves to it from Fu-shun, Fou-hsin, and from high quality coking-coal deposits in the Pen-ch’i area in southeastern Manchuria.
