Interesting piece of slag

[Dougie Webb]

Even though one member recently told me that I was wasting everyone's time with my posts, I'm going to ignore him and continue to ask for y'alls help until the admins tell me otherwise

Found this piece of slag yesterday in the woods near my house near the site of an old mill, very close to where I've found very old hand-forged nails. It's heavy-ish, with a specific gravity of about 4.5. It's about 1 inch by 3 inch

It hits around an 85 on the Ace (aluminum cans and coins), with occasional blips of 39, which is usually nickel.

I find tin-can slag around there a lot, but it is much denser, with a SG of about 8. That's what I thought this was at first.

The shiny parts are really throwing me. Never seen anything like it. It feels/looks like chrome. Any ideas what it might be made of?

Thanks in advance!

Just my opinion, but in one of the pics it looks like someone took a blowtorch to the teeth of a circular saw.....
