They blowed up real good. Iran's ministers for industry and advanced technology were unavailable for comment.

It does happen...there used to be a great video on YouTube of a charge of scrap steel (that had snow and ice in it from outside storage) being dropped into an electric furnace. The frozen stuff flashed into live steam and exploded very nicely, with lots of molten steel droplets flying, before the charge finished hitting the furnace floor.
Quite a show...but not enough to kill seven people (unless they didn’t have the sense to get off the mill floor during the charge).

Centrifuge tubes used in the uranium enrichment process are made of maraging steel.
Not sure if that’s what kind of alloy this plant made, though.
