Sažetak
The beginnings of the world metallurgy date back to the 7000 years B.C. On the territory of today’s Croatia, metallurgy has been present for 6000 years. Three civilizations have left the evidence of this: Vucedol, Celtic, and Roman civilization. After the arrival of the Croats, metallurgy has been more intensively present in the Sisak-Banovina and Samobor regions, as well as Gorski Kotar region. Casting of bells (and cannons) was developed in Dubrovnik and Zagreb. The industrial production start date was in 1853 (Foundry in Rijeka), in 1937 (the production of aluminium and Al-alloys in Lozovac) as well as in 1939 with the construction of the blast furnace in Caprag. In the period after 1945, until 1990, Croatia had several metallurgical companies and acceptable production of coke, iron, steel, ferroalloys, electrodes, casting, reinforced concrete steel, seamless and welded tubes, strips, billets, aluminium, etc. In 1990, total production of various metallurgical products in Croatia was 2.670.000 tons of which up to 2.000.000 t/y came from Steelworks Sisak. From 1990 to 2012, over 2.600,00 t/g of metallurgical products were demolished or discontinued, which represented the collapse of Croatian metallurgy. The paper cites more important publications on the Steelworks Sisak, which was a long-standing carrier of metallurgical production in Croatia. There is also a review of the last published Proceedings of the Sisak Ironworks (2019).
