    With a bit of Internet searching……
    .
    How to tell whether its extruded or cast:
    "Burn a piece , extruded burns silently and will drip molten balls , cast burns with a crackly/smokey flame and wont drip. "
    .
    "Another point worth mentioning is that extruded stinks when it's cut but cast has an almost sweet smell."
    .
    And on this forum, from John S in Feb 2013
    .
    "Extruded has white backing on one side and clear on the other.
    Cast has clear backing on one side and white on the other."
    .
    .
    Personally, I would only trust John.
