The Hammer
1. Does this hammer present a problem to the current evolutionary timeline? It was found in 1934 in Cretaceous rock in Texas, which would date it 100 million years before humans came around according to the ToE.
2. This hammer doesn't rust due to the chlorine in the iron. This doesn't have anything to do with creation/evolution, but rather how this much iron came about to have chlorine in it.
(96% iron, 2.6% chlorine and .74% sulfur )
mixtureFrom what I understand, this can be duplicated today on the molecular level, but it can't be mass produced. The chlorine in the iron gives it protection from corrosion.

The London Artifact was found near London, Texas in Kimball County. The site is part of a large geographical zone called the Edwards Plateau. It primarily consists of Cretaceous rock.
The density of the iron in a central, cross-sectional plane is shown in Photo K16. It shows the interior metal to be very pure, with no bubbles. Modern industry cannot consistently produce iron castings with this quality, as evidenced by test results that show bubbles and density variations that have caused pump and valve bodies to break.
To verify that the hammer was made of metal, they cut into one of the beveled sides with a file. In the resulting nick, bright, shiny iron was exposed. The bright metal in the nick is still there, with no detectable corrosion. The metal hammerhead is approximately six inches (15.24cm) long with a nominal diameter of one inch.
