He said AMAX is already working on a new magnesium product for the iron steel industry. I dont think well have any trouble this year trying to maintain sales. The sales department, though, has a real challenge to meet the sales price because of the strong dollar, said Dr. Toomey. A stronger dollar gives AMAX a lower return on the magnesium it exports, he added. Notes Small Profit Mr. Schultz began his review of 1984 by noting AMAX Magnesium made a small profit for the first time in its history. However, he said, "this result should be tempered with the understanding that over 70 percent of this profit came from an insurance claim that was paid as a result of the breach of our dikes. The breach he was talking about occurred in May 1983 and damaged AMAXs north dike. The cause was lake flooding as a result of heavy rain, which began pelting the Was-tac- h Front in September 1982. Dr. Toomey said between 10 and 15 million cubic yards of dirt was required to repair the dike. He said the cost was about $15 to $20 million, some of which was covered by insurance.
