flyadive, looks like something has been put in there. Is that possible? Interesting.
Not "put in" but maybe spilled/placed or purposely laid on the molten ...??

Gold is malleable, so probably not gold. But an unusual piece anyway!

I've tried , that's the best I can do for now, it's only the size of a pencil point.
