[QUOTE="BumbleB, post: 45867, member: 722"] Hi Wally- I'm not 100% what that would be, but it does look identical to what I figured was slagg that I found up Clermont way some months back. I was detecting thu the scrub & came across a VERY old camp site that had obviously been used for some sort of smelting- big fire pits & makeshift drums & cooking area, remnants of lean-to sleeping area etc etc. That stuff was scattered all around in very large chucks. The detector was ever so slightly reactive to some of them. I spend some time smashing a few of them against each other in an attempt to figure out what they were- I came to the conclusion that that it was slagg. So I recon thats what you have got mate.
