[meteorite-list] New Quiz - the solution

[Christian Anger]

Hi all again,

it is iron slag from Austria, displayed at the entrance of the "Ragga Canyon" in Flattach,
Carinthia, Austria.

here's a pic with the description of the iron.

Sign says 

" iron slag
from the melt ovens
of melt-huts (Schmelzhütten)"

"melt-huts" (Schmelzhütten) is called a very, very small village nearby.

Yes, another lookalike, but very interesting is the nearly perfect shape.

It could be easily mixed up with a meteorite.

The only one recognizing it as a slag was Harald Stehlik. He was NOT aware of this piece.

He really recognized it. Great job, Harald !

Cheers again,
 
Christian
