Hello List and Thomas,

It is very high in nickel and shows a strange etch pattern,
it shows brittle and silvery Schreibersites, as seen in this iron as needles
that is shown in the etching.

Spelling is Schreibersites

Tim

Hi Tim,
Try a little different spelling or just go to this article by Jim Tobin in
