    THE MAKING OF THE NEWCASTLE INDUSTRIAL HUB 1915 to 1950 Robert Martin Kear M.Bus. (University of Southern Queensland) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of a Master of Philosophy in History January 2018 This research was supported by an Australian Government Research Training Program (RTP) Scholarship STATEMENT OF ORIGINALITY I hereby certify that the work embodied in the thesis is my own work, conducted under normal supervision. The thesis contains no material which has been accepted, or is being examined, for the award of any other degree or diploma in any other university or other tertiary institution and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference has been made in the text. I give consent to the final version of my thesis being made available worldwide when deposited in the University’s Digital Repository, subject to the provisions of the Copyright Act 1968 and any approved embargo. Robert Kear ii ABSTRACT Aim of this Thesis The aim of this thesis is to chart the formation of the Newcastle Industrial Hub and to identify the men who controlled it, in its journey from Australian regional obscurity before 1915, to be the core of Australian steel manufacturing and technological development by 1950. This will be achieved through an examination of the progressive and consistent application of strategic direction and the adoption of manufacturing technologies that progressively lowered the manufacturing cost of steel. This thesis will also argue that, coupled with tariff and purchasing preferences assistance, received from all levels of government, the provision of integrated logistic support services from Newcastle’s public utilities and education services underpinned its successful commercial development.

  • Founding of a Steel Industry Australia's Steel Industry Has Its
    Founding of a Steel Industry Australia's steel industry has its origins in an unusual reversal of the ancient art of alchemy. Its founders made their fortunes not in the pursuit of gold and silver, as they all in some way hoped they might, but in the making of iron and steel. The industry has its genesis in the 19th century, in the days when gold mining and great landholdings were the main hope for wealth in Australia. Just where the story begins is a matter of personal perspective. For some, it begins with John Lysaght in England, for others with Charles Rasp at Broken Hill, and for yet others with the Hoskins family in Port Kembla or even Lithgow. All of these sought wealth from gold or silver along the way to founding the Australian steel industry, and their ultimate success is now embodied in the company that has become BlueScope Steel Limited. Over the years the three main threads of this story - Lysaght, BHP and Hoskins - have been interwoven in countless ways. The result is a fascinating and complex tale of endeavour in the best Australian traditions. Founding fathers A little chronology helps set the scene. Lysaght is the oldest part of the story, dating back to 1857, when a young John Lysaght set up a small galvanising business in Bristol, England. His company would ultimately form a very large part of the BlueScope Steel business, although it did not begin local production until 1921 when it set up a rolling and galvanising plant in Newcastle. For John Lysaght, the impetus to seek lucrative markets in Australia came from the gold rushes which began in the 1850s.

  • Australian Iron & Steel
    lllawarra H rstorical Society August 61 THE BACKGROUND BEHIND THE FORMATION OF AUSTRALIAN IRON AND STEEL LTD. AND ITS EARLY HISTORY Don Reynolds presented a paper at the June Meet1ng on this topic. He began by outlining the efforts of James Rutherford in establishing an Ironworks at Lith­ gow in 1876, then detailing how William Sandford produced the first steel in Australia in May, 1900. Dan's paper then explored the manouvers involved in the Hoskins Family gaining control of the Lithgow works and the reasons for the family's decision to remove operations at Lithgow to another site. We reprint Dan's paper in full from the point where BHP establishes a Steelworks at Newcastle in competition with the Hoskins Lithgow Works. BHP entered the iron and steel industry in competition with Hoskins when they opened their new steelworks at Newcastle. The BHP plant was new, it was well laid out, it was on a good coal field for producing matallurgical coke, itwas on a tidewater location and it had ample reserves of good quality iron ore, even though the ore was in South Australia. Hoskins had a relatively old plant (much of it very old), the plant was poorly laid out and split between two sites at Lith­ gow, it had to rail it's raw materials and products long distances, it's reserves of iron ore were small and of low grade and the local coal made inferior metall­ urgical coke. The Hoskins' Family were finding the position anything but promising. In 1916 they purchased the leases of an undeveloped coal mine at Wongawilli and built a mine, coal washery and coke ovens at Wongawilli to supply coke to their Lithgow works.

  • CHAPTER 4 RAW MATERIALS : STEEL' TER the Formation of The
    CHAPTER 4 RAW MATERIALS : STEEL' TER the formation of the Department of Munitions in June 1940 , Acontrol of the supply of raw materials—principally metals and heavy chemicals—consumed by all the industries engaged in making munitions , was in the hands of the Directorate of Materials Supply headed by Si r Colin Fraser. This directorate arranged for the rationing of these materials where necessary and for ensuring that the needs of defence were give n their appropriate priority . The comparatively small number of suppliers of base metals and heavy chemicals in Australia allowed effective control of these raw materials to be imposed at the source of supply . 2 The Broke n Hill Proprietary Company Ltd had a monopoly of the iron and stee l industry and the "Collins House Group" dominated the production of non - ferrous metals; heavy chemical industry was almost entirely in the hand s of Imperial Chemical Industries of Australia and New Zealand Lt d (I.C.I.A.N.Z.) . The conventions in regard to the use of the terms production and suppl y in the civil series of this history require some explanation . Hasluck3 says : Production, in its simplest sense, covers the growing of crops, the winning of ores , timber and fuel, the generation of power, the processing of materials, the manufac- ture of commodities, implements, machines, weapons and munitions. It also means the bringing together of the men and materials, the machines and power in the right place in order that they may produce. Supply, in its simplest sense, covers the arrangements by which any kind of product is obtained and delivered at the poin t where it is to be used.
