112. ...melts metal.
In the clearup operation afterwards, small globules of metal were found on the ground surrounding shaft 9 - these had been melted from the tanker walls, swept up with the exhaust gases, and dropped out onto the grass.

If they had not been "swept up with the exhaust gases", where would they have gone?
