Sure, if you cut corners I know this because I keep seeing flyers from the local property value guardian squad warning that this could happen to my building if the empty lot next to it is developed

This right here is like, third world worst kinda pollution possible poo poo. I've seen some old 1970s era footage of the exact same practice used in the Rust Belt and yeah, it's basically impossible to clean up afterward. You end up with a thick rear end sheet of whatever the underlying base soil was and a huge layer of economically nonviable slag on top and its pretty much impossible to remediate.

That's probably too broad of a question my understanding - and if festivus says i'm wrong, i'm wrong - is that it's usually dumped in landfills or occasionally given to scrapyards in cooled, solid form; the disaster of the (admittedly very cool looking) "what if we just pour all this liquid metal wherever we feel like" is that it turns the whole area into one big messy glob whereas if it's a bunch of, i dunno what you call chunks of slag, ingots, it's much less contamination (still not sure i'd be excited to have fourteen tons of lead slag on my lawn) and can even potentially be recycled by the sufficiently enterprising Goatse James Bond fucked around with this message at 23:27 on Apr 19, 2023 |

ironically the slag from modern scrap recycling minimills is significantly worse ecologically than primary production slag, there's not much to that besides limestone and quartz and it grinds up into concrete & roadbed aggregate real nice and somewhat easier than natural rock because of all the gas inclusions. The recycled stuff cooks out all the exotic metals the input steel was alloyed with like chromium and manganese and becomes a contamination hazard.

Y'all heard of the Old Works Golf Course in Anaconda. Montana? The sand traps are made actually pulverized slag. They reportedly will shred your shoes and stain anything white.

Slag is extremely good as an aggregate in concrete, not only is extremely basic (which helps keep reinforcement steel in good condition) but its also pozzolinic so over time reacts with water to make the concrete stronger. Also as an aggregate in itself its very good because shock granulated slag has lots of nice rough surfaces that bite together well. If slag isn't being shock quenched and then ground to do this its an extreme waste imo, its literally better in every way than portland cement, and is a waste product from another industrial process.

The fact that bigger and worse things are happening doesn't make it any less of a good idea to do whatever minor recycling and proper trash sorting that you can personally do. It just means large-scale, industrial actors also need to be pressured to do the same.

Scott DiShields at Kentucky Ballistics. He had a .50 Serbu explode from a bad cartridge that absolutely wrecked him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1449kJKxlMQ describes what happened and why. Since then, he has done a series of videos showing what happens when there is a catastrophic failure in a firearm, including one with the Slow-Mo guys. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSvAg-nKZtQ

This is me, I’m a gun expert with a YouTube channel that shot old 50 caliber rounds and says there’s absolutely no way of knowing that something bad could happen when the previous rounds were admittedly acting funny. I’m very smart.
