← HistoryWhich risk increases when bloomery iron refining exceeded capacity?
A)Localized charcoal source depletion results✓
B)Forging temperatures become uncontrollably high
C)Kiln refractory lining integrity declines
D)Slag inclusions uniformly decrease output
💡 Explanation
Localized charcoal depletion increases because excessive ore processing depends on sustained fuel availability, leading to deforestation. Therefore, charcoal sources are affected first, rather than forging temperatures, refractory wear, or uniform increases in slag exclusion.
