I got a batch of an alloy, the density is about 6.40~6.85g/cm² (the range my scale offers, may be +- some) and i have a hard time to figure what it could be and there was no information from the source
Its silver colored, can be copper plated (as in some parts seem to be, maybe also nickel and gold plating on some), MAY be reacting to oxygen (not tested yet but some broken parts look alike..) magnets do not stick to it but would show resistance when sliding down in 45° aka slow sliding, at first thought it was some kind of aluminium alloy but after density test i am rather sure it is not (aluminium based alloys go at an density under 3g/cm as far as i know) so what could it be?
Thank you for reading, please reply if you have any idea no matter how far fetched, thank you :!
Here i made a picture with detail (width about 1cm):
