Northshore is a surface mine owned and operated by Cleveland-Cliffs located in the northeastern end of Minnesota's Mesabi Iron Range, approximately 3 kilometres south of the city of Babbitt. The operation produces BF and DR pellets which are entirely transferred to Cliffs' steel mills and the company's HBI plant in Toledo, Ohio. In September 2020, Cleveland-Cliffs acquired ArcelorMittal USA for US$1.4 billion. Prior to that, in December 2019, Cliffs had purchased AK Steel for US$1.1 billion. Both acquisitions not only give rise to US' largest flats producer, but are also poised to fundamentally change pellet price systems within the new conglomerate. Northshore's output drastically reduced by over 80% during 2022, achieving 1Mtpa that year. This resulted from increased scrap usage and reduced demand for iron ore pellets in Cliffs' steelmaking operations.
