Gray slag is typically an aggregate of waste material produced during the smelting process, usually composed of various minerals and metals. It is not classified as a specific type of rock, but rather a byproduct of industrial processes.
High alumina fire bricks are commonly used in applications involving molten blast furnace slag due to their high refractoriness and resistance to thermal shock. These bricks are able to withstand the high temperatures and harsh conditions of the slag without deforming or deteriorating quickly.
It would still be a gray rock. May get a few things living on it or in it, but it would still be a gray rock.
Molten slag typically contains a mixture of metal oxides, silicon dioxide, and other impurities left over from the smelting process. The composition of slag can vary depending on the type of metal being processed and the specific smelting conditions.
Slate grey, of course
A gabbro dike is typically older than a gray shale. Gabbro is an igneous rock that forms from the cooling of magma intruding into existing rock formations. Gray shale, on the other hand, is a sedimentary rock that forms from the accumulation of sediment over time. Therefore, the gabbro dike would have formed before the gray shale was deposited.
minerals
No. Slag (more commonly called scoria) is an igneous rock.
Marl is a sedimentary rock because the rock is made from dark gray fragments which have been squeezed together.
A slag rock is an artificial rock. Slag is made as a byproduct of industrial processes such as metal mining. It is also produced by iron smelting such as in steel mills.
a major slag
Slag typically appears as a glassy, amorphous material with a range of colors, including black, gray, brown, or even green, depending on its composition. It often has a rough, irregular texture and can contain various inclusions, making it look somewhat like volcanic rock or gravel. When cooled, it can form solid masses or granules that are often shiny or dull.
The rock you are describing sounds like granite. Granite is a type of igneous rock that is composed of dark gray minerals such as quartz and feldspar, with occasional white dots of minerals like quartz or mica.
High alumina fire bricks are commonly used in applications involving molten blast furnace slag due to their high refractoriness and resistance to thermal shock. These bricks are able to withstand the high temperatures and harsh conditions of the slag without deforming or deteriorating quickly.
