Hey, can any of you tell me a bit about this weird slag?

[Barry-Goodknight]

Usually the slag I find looks like melted plastic or something.

Yesterday, while MD old mine tailings, this stuff was hitting at 0 VDI on Whites MXT.

It's rather light weight and you can see silvery metal in it.

What is it? Lead?

Maybe lead more likely a bunch of guys tossed their beer cans or solo cups in a fire though.

This stuff is a byproduct of tungsten mining. Idk what it is but I found the same stuff. See if the mine is a tungsten mine.
