Tire weights question

does anyone here use this stuff for jig making??

For fun today i melted down about 40 lbs of tire weights and poured cute little lead fish ingots out of it. ( i have a fish shaped cornbread pan)

My question is this- is the tire weight lead some sort of alloy?? it seams alot harder than the lead i am used to.

Oh, and i am glad i did 40 lbs, as i will never do this agian... there was rubber tire stems in the bucket
