7.5 short tons (6.8 t) of the steel used in the ship's construction came from the rubble of the World Trade Center; this represents less than one thousandth of the total weight of the ship.
The steel was melted down at Amite Foundry and Machine in Amite, Louisiana, to cast part of the ship's bow section. It was poured into the molds on 9 September 2003, with 7 short tons (6.4 t) cast to form the ship's "stem bar" — part of the ship's bow.
The shipyard workers reportedly treated it with "reverence usually accorded to religious relics", gently touching it as they walked by.
Cheers, mate.
