let me just give another hint to anyone still guessing

it was first discovered in slag heaps of material dug from a large silver mine in what is now Czechia but was then Germany - and the miners called it - translated into English: "Bad-luck mix" can also mean "pitch mix" - probably a word game indulged in by those early miners, because by then they had dug deep into the mountain and instead of silver they came across these bands of useless rock - back in the late 18th century

it still has the propensity of bad luck, although lots of good could come from it.
