The focus of the research is Fazenda Ipanema, located in Araçoiaba da Serra, state of São Paulo, where since the 16 th century there have been attempts, achievements and abortions in the production of iron. From the 18 th century to 19 th century, a Chemist ,John Manso Pereira , was sent to Ipanema during the first endeavor from the government to establish an ironworks factory at the place.
