Nickel sulfide inclusions

In relation to the discussion on the topic of spontaneous breakage in full tempered glass I would like to know what exactly is “nickel sulfide inclusions”?

Nickel sulfide inclusions refer to the existence of certain types of rare and very small, undissolved nickel sulfide stones, stainless steel etc. in the float glass. Inclusions in glass originate from impurities in the batch or cullet, or are combined from furnace refectories during the manufacturing glass process.

at the moment we are using a heat soaking machine that removes the nickle sulphide.
