Asktuff in Swedish and translate to english it's ashtuff, it was created by a meteor impact 365 million years ago that created the lake Siljan in Dalarna, Sweden and can only natural be found in a ring around this lake. It was used a lot during stoneage up there and reminds of flint, greenish is most common but can been found in other colors also, it is very sharp and brittle when its translucent and to heat it does not need at all.
