Hi. Is this the Murex metal works ? You obviously know about it in detail ! Was there ever a pier there built using concrete barges of the same type as now lie at Rainham Marshes ?

Murex Ltd, Manufacturing Metalurgists. Produced wide range of metals including vanadium, cobalt, tungsten, niobium, molybdenum, et al. Largely self sufficient factory with its own gas plant, hydrogen plant, boreholes etc. Company originally started by a German scientist who discovered how to extract vanadium from the soot of oil burning boilers. Legend says he would collect the soot from ship's boiler cleaners and cart it around the country for secrecy, before bringing it to his isolated factory on Rainham Marshes. Vertically integrated from ore to finished articles including tungsten tool tips, thermal welding of rail lines and welding rods. Had a critically important role in WW2
