Hey potters,
I have several bags that I don't
know what they are yet. The only
markings are # 1 white. I will test for
whiting, it feels similar.
Any idea what this stuff is.

Probably whiting. Put it in some vinegar and see if it fizzes.

It could also be Dolomite but you would need a stronger acid to make it fi=

Lemon juice is more acidic than vinegar, wouldn't that work?
