Iran is one of the 10 steel producing countries in the world
The head of the Geology and Mineral Exploration Organization of the country continued by stating that all products and geological and exploratory data of Iran are uploaded in the web database of earth sciences of the country, said: "All those interested in this section are able to receive this information and according to studies and achievements Appropriate Denmark In the database section, we want to exchange achievements.
