Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

         Effective  September 15, 2000, ISG  Resources,  Inc.  ("ISG")  acquired
certain  fixed  and  intangible   assets  from  Hanson   Aggregates  West,  Inc.
("Hanson").  Hanson is a  subsidiary  of  Hanson  PLC,  a leading  international
building  materials company with operations in North America and Europe.  Hanson
PLC's principal businesses include the sale of aggregates, concrete products and
bricks.

         ISG established  through  negotiation a purchase price of $2,100,000 in
cash, for all of the equipment and other fixed assets, as well as contracts with
three Texas and Louisiana power plants.  The assets acquired by ISG are located,
based,  or  utilized  at the fly  ash  operations  of  Hanson  at the  following
locations:

          1.   Welsh Power Plant, near Cason, Texas
          2.   Rodemacher Power Plant, near Boyce, Louisiana; and
          3.   Nelson Station Power Plant, near Westlake, Louisiana

         ISG will utilize the assets purchased to provide  materials  management
services  for  the  utility  contracts   acquired  in  the  asset   acquisition.
Approximately  500,000  tons of fly ash  and  bottom  ash  will be  managed  and
marketed under the contracts.

Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

         (a) Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired.  The audited financial
statements  of Hanson,  as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 and for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, are attached hereto beginning at page F-1.

         (b) Pro Forma Financial Information.  The unaudited pro forma financial
information  for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and for the year ended
December 31, 1999 set forth below is presented as if the asset  acquisition with
Hanson had  occurred  on January 1, 1999.  This  information  is  presented  for
illustrative  purposes  only  and is not  necessarily  indicative  of  what  the
Company's  financial  position or results of operations  would have been had the
asset  acquisition with Hanson occurred on that date. This information  reflects
all adjustments,  consisting of normal recurring accruals,  which in the opinion
of management,  are necessary for a  presentation  of results for the respective
periods in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

         The purchase price of the  acquisition was allocated based on estimated
fair  values of the  assets at the date of  acquisition.  Amounts  allocated  to
intangible assets are being amortized from 8 - 20 years.

                         Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Directors
Hanson Aggregates West

We have audited the  accompanying  statements of net assets of Hanson Fly Ash (a
division of Hanson  Aggregates  West) (the "Division") as of September 15, 2000,
January 1, 2000 and December 26, 1998 and the related  statements  of income and
cash flows for the period from January 2, 2000 to September  15, 2000,  and each
of the three fiscal years in the period ended January 1, 2000.  These  financial
statements   are  the   responsibility   of  the  Division's   management.   Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable  assurance about whether the financial  statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial  statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all  material  respects,  the net assets of Hanson Fly Ash (a division of Hanson
Aggregates  West) at September 15, 2000,  January 1, 2000 and December 26, 1998,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from January
2, 2000 to September 15, 2000,  and each of the three fiscal years in the period
ended  January 1, 2000,  in  conformity  with  accounting  principles  generally
accepted in the United States.

                                                              Ernst & Young LLP

                          Notes to Financial Statements

                               September 15, 2000

1.  Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Hanson Fly Ash (the  Division)  is a  division  of Hanson  Aggregates  West (the
Parent),  which in turn is a  subsidiary  of  Hanson  PLC  (PLC).  The  Division
purchases, removes and sells fly ash and other by-products of coal combustion to
producers and consumers of building materials and construction  related products
throughout Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana.

On September 15, 2000,  the Parent sold  substantially  all of the assets of the
Division to an unrelated third party, ISG Resources, Inc. ("ISG").

Basis of Presentation

The historical  financial  statements do not necessarily  reflect the results of
operations  or financial  position that would have existed had the Division been
an independent  entity.  Corporate  costs incurred  related  specifically to the
Division (manager  salaries,  fringe benefits,  etc.) have been allocated to the
Division and  reflected in the  accompanying  statements of income in accordance
with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 55, "Allocation of Expenses and Related
Disclosure in Financial Statements of Subsidiaries, Divisions or Lesser Business
Components of Another Entity." However,  the Parent and PLC also provide various
legal services, tax compliance and planning services, risk management, treasury,
and other corporate services to the Division. The Division has not been involved
in litigation  nor incurred legal expense during the periods under audit nor has
the Division  been required to borrow funds given its  historical  positive cash
flows from operations. Therefore, no legal or interest costs have been allocated
to the Division.  Income taxes have been  calculated as if the Division  filed a
separate  income tax return (see Note 4). The Parent and PLC may  provide  other
incidental  services to the Division;  however,  the  incremental  cost of these
incidental services and costs is not believed to be material to the Division and
is not included in the financial statements of the Division.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the sale of products is recognized  primarily upon passage of title
to  the  customer,   which  generally   coincides  with  physical  delivery  and
acceptance. Product revenue generally includes transportation charges associated
with delivering the material.

Cost of  products  sold are  primarily  amounts  paid to  utility  companies  to
purchase product,  generally through royalties on amounts sold to customers, and
transportation costs of delivering the product to the customer.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property,  plant  and  equipment  are  recorded  at  cost.  Major  renewals  and
improvements  are  capitalized,  while  maintenance  and repairs are expensed as
incurred.  Depreciation  is  computed  using the  straight-line  method at rates
adequate to recover costs over the assets' useful lives.  Estimated useful lives
are generally 3 to 12 years for vehicles, machinery and equipment, and furniture
and fixtures, and 5 to 22 years for buildings and improvements.

As required by  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS) No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed  Of,"  management  evaluates  the carrying  value of all  long-lived
assets to determine  recoverability  when  indicators of impairment  are present
based generally on an analysis of undiscounted cash flows.  Management  believes
no material impairment in the value of long-lived assets exists at September 15,
2000.

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


1.  Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Pension and Post-Retirement Benefits

The Division  participates in a pension and post-retirement  plan managed by PLC
for the benefit of substantially all of the Division's employees. The Division's
portion of the total benefit  obligations has not been  actuarially  determined.
Total expense recorded by the Division for the Plan was  approximately  $22,000,
$28,000, $48,000 and $95,000 for the period from January 2 to September 15, 2000
and the fiscal years ended  January 1, 2000,  December 26, 1998 and December 27,
1997, respectively.

Income Taxes

Income  taxes  are  recorded  based  on  the  liability  method  which  requires
recognition  of deferred tax assets and  liabilities  measured using enacted tax
rates  and laws  that are  expected  to be in effect  when the  differences  are
expected to reverse.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial  statements and
reported  amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting  period.  Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

2.  Related-Party Transactions

The  Division  periodically  sells  certain of its  products to related  parties
(other  divisions and  subsidiaries of the Parent and/or PLC).  Sales to related
parties totaled approximately $461,000,  $771,000, $656,000 and $579,000 for the
period from  January 2, 2000 to September  15, 2000,  and the fiscal years ended
January 1, 2000, December 26, 1998 and December 27, 1997, respectively.

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

2.  Related-Party Transactions (continued)

The Division  purchases  certain  items from  related  parties.  Purchases  from
related parties totaled approximately  $1,060,000 for the period from January 2,
2000 to September 15, 2000,  and  $1,500,000  for each of the fiscal years ended
January 1, 2000, December 26, 1998 and December 27, 1997. No amounts were due to
related parties for such purchases as of September 15, 2000, January 1, 2000 and
December 26, 1998.

The Division  participates  in a cash management  program with its Parent.  Cash
received on behalf of the  Division is recorded as an  intercompany  receivable,
and cash paid on behalf of the Division is recorded as an intercompany  payable.
Additionally,  the income tax payable,  calculated  as if the  Division  filed a
separate income tax return, is included within this balance. The accumulated net
balance is  included  within net assets and totals  $4,834,077,  $4,371,791  and
$3,287,384  as of  September  15,  2000,  January 1, 2000 and December 26, 1998,
respectively.

3.  Concentration of Credit Risk

Generally, the Division does not require collateral or other security to support
trade accounts  receivable.  The Division's five largest customers accounted for
approximately 49% of the revenues for the period from January 1 to September 15,
2000 and 45%, 40% and 33% for the fiscal years ended  January 1, 2000,  December
26, 1998 and  December  27,  1997,  respectively.  Amounts  included in accounts
receivable for these  customers  totaled  approximately  $585,000,  $351,000 and
$477,000 as of  September  15,  2000,  January 1, 2000 and  December  26,  1998,
respectively.  Historically,  the Division has not had significant uncollectable
accounts.

4.  Income Taxes

The  Division's  operations  are included in the Parent's and PLC's combined tax
returns  and  the  Division   presently  does  not  have  a  formal  tax-sharing
arrangement.  However,  the  income tax  expense  included  in the  accompanying
statements  of income  has been  computed  as if the  Division  filed a separate
income tax return.
