Anybody know what they use as the mold material?

I remember using simple sand in the eighth grade in industrial arts.

Just found this, FWIW.

Green sand (an aggregate of sand, pulverized coal, bentonite clay, and water) has traditionally been used in sand casting, however modern chemically bonded molding systems are becoming more popular. The most widely used casting sand is silica (SiO2).
