The Marbella blast furnaces lang es altos hornos de Marbella were the first steel works in Spain . The blast furnaces in Marbella emerged after the discovery of iron deposits in Oj n and because of the availability of charcoal in the Sierra Blanca and the passage of water from the Verde River . So, in August and September 1826, two societies called La Concepci n and El Angel were established, the first promoted by Manuel Agust n Heredia , the second by Joan Gir . The furnaces at one time accounted for 75 per cent of iron that was smelted in Spain. But production of charcoal kilns was much more expensive than that obtained by coking coal and the steel industry in Marbella gradually died out due to more efficient competition from the steel producers of the north. In honor of the first steelworks in Marbella, the Jard n Bot nico La Concepci n , gardens were created. Bibliography Garc a Montoro, C.
