[QUOTE="TTKooAu, post: 66034, member: 1600"] Found this specimen at a beach in Adelaide. Detected very easy, down about 30 cm. Its around 4 inches long in the old scale and would weigh about 350 grams comparing it to a tin of food. Magnets are only barely attracted to it. A tiny magnet will stick to it but a powerful pot magnet will fall off. Maybe slag? I've heard of Ironstone but never seen any?. Any help would be appreciated.
