I got this from my son. Been sitting in his barn for God knows how long. Dropped it on the concrete and it rang like a bell. Haven't had a chance to do any hardness testing. It has some gouges in it so I don't think it is zinc. I'll check the hardness and post back.4524545246

Melt it!
Check the temperatures of slush and liquid.
Try to cast a boolit with it.
Who cares if it works.

I took the piece to the scrapyard and had them shoot it with there gun.
Cu 1.51%
Pb 78.26
Sn 7.41
Sb. 12.83

Too bad it's only a few pounds.

Oh hey , that's concentrated wheel weight. Just add lead to taste.
