Joe Salande Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Greetings Folks. A friend of mind found this is Saudi Arabia. These are the best photo's and scale that I could get. It does seem to have a little metallic feel to it. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsaacTheFossilMan Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 This is slag - a waste product formed by the smelting of ores and refining of metals. It looks to be iron, there is oxidisation in the form of rust visible: ~ Isaac; www.isaactfm.com "Don't move!

IsaacTheFossilMan Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Also, for the next one, make sure to attach photos with an international scale, such as a ruler, or measurement tape! Also note that bills can bend and warp, and are only recognisable as size in your country. ~ Isaac; www.isaactfm.com "Don't move!
