China Armco Metals Inc.'s new scrapyard in China's Jiangsu province is up and running following a delay in getting electricity from the utility in the Lianyungang enterprise zone.

"With the contracts, materials, manpower and equipment in place and operational, we now are in a position to realize our growth potential," Kexuan Yao, chairman and chief executive officer, said in a statement.
