Hi Mike

I think the newspaper article was referring to the factory that was to be established at Derwent Park ?

"The Premier said the works would include a large num-
ber of mechanical presses, rolling mills and a foundry, which
would process copper and zinc produced in Tasmania ; in fact,
all the raw materials used would be of Tasmanian origin."


From wiki : Ammunition Factory Derwent Park (MD) – Derwent Park, Tasmania. Manufactured cartridge cases and 2-inch mortar shells.
