What is that stuff???

I went to cut up and dispose of a duplicate credit card today and found that not only wouldn't sharp kitchen scissors cut it, neither would a quality pair of 9" metal shears. I think I'd need a power tool to cut this card completely in half. There's a .010" sheet of polished metal laminated into it that seems much harder to cut into than it should be.

Anyone know what's inside these cards that makes them so difficult to cut up?
