Fensch
The Fensch or Fentsch is a river in the Moselle department of the Grand Est region of France. It is a left tributary of the Moselle, and thus a sub-tributary of the Rhine. Geography The Fensch is long. It rises in Fontoy in the west of the Moselle department. It then crosses Knutange, Nilvange, Hayange, Serémange-Erzange and Florange before discharging from the left into the Moselle between Metz and Thionville on the border of the commune of Illange. It generally flows from west to east. Originally, as shown by the Cassini map, the waters of the lower part of the Fensch combined with the waters of the Veymerange and fed the moat around the town of Thionville before joining the Moselle. After the removal of the fortifications, the Fensch was diverted to its current course to supply water to the new ironworks installed a little south of this locality. The springs of Morlange (now part of Fameck) and of Ranguevaux were captured in 1886 and carried by gravity to Thionvil ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Sollac
Sollac (Société Lorraine de Laminage Continu) was a French steel company formed in December 1948 as a cooperative to produce steel rolls in Lorraine from steel provided by several other companies. There were various changes of ownership during the years that followed. In 1970 the company, under pressure from the French government, began to develop a large new continuous strip mill in the south of France. The French steel industry soon went into crisis, with excess capacity and declining demands from automobile manufacturers and the construction industry. Sollac became a subsidiary of Usinor in 1987, responsible for all flat products. In 2002 Usinor became part of Arcelor, which in turn was merged into ArcelorMittal in 2006. Formation After World War II (1939–45) the United States wanted to ensure that the French steel industry could compete effectively with the Ruhr. Usinor (Union Sidérurgique du Nord de la France) was formed in 1948 by a merger of Denain-Anzin, founded in 1 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
