    organic iron plates, not plates of organic iron.

    the plates are generated by an organic process, not out of organic materials.

    you can’t just remove a word from the context and act as if that doesn’t change the meaning.

      Well, I’m not a native english speaker and the title seemed at least misleading.

        fair enough! I see now that my comment might look a little antagonizing, that was not what I wanted to express, sorry bout that.
