Meteorlima Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I obtained this piece from a collector in New Mexico who said it's not a meteorite. There are tiny metal spheres visible.one large sphere sticks out from the piece. I've seen foundry slag but this is something else. Any ideas?

The Found Dutchman Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 It's slag. You can tell by the vesicles and the coloration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelly starkey Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Slag that was a crude smelt not enough heat are time to melt completely,the round spears are base metal probably silver by the color of the cut one.I have found it [slag] with spears of copper in it and the unmelted quarz and ore.>>>>kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
