Talk:Sponge iron

merger proposal
I believe that this should be merged with the article about direct reduced iron. According to this (http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/direct-reduced-iron-DRI.html) website, both are the same. --Joost.vp (talk) 15:50, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Redirect?
Is there any difference between Sponge Iron and Iron Bloom, as in Bloomery- If not, then perhaps Bloomery article should be edited, then Sponge Iron should redirect there, as most of this article seems to reproduce what is either there or in other Iron articles. IceDragon64 21:33, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
