They have the same stuff on their lot still...unfortunately they just have it listed as Decorative Garden Rock.

Crappy thing is they won't give me the name of the supplier. Always some dumb excuse like "can't find it", "I'm working on it" etc.

Hmmm, crappy management....

Well most slag is inert so if you never find out, you might have nothing to worry about; your call.

I forgot to say..It FLOATS!!, damdest thing you ever saw...:WHOA:

Well the rock definitely sinks, its the trapped air that floats!
 
Try weighing it done with what ever in a tub of water outside for a few days and see if the air will excape. If not break it into smaller pieces with a sledge hammer and hopefully the air chamber will crack first.
