During ancient smelting which outcome results because iron blooms are repeatedly hammered?

💡 Explanation

Increased hammering causes better slag removal via mechanical displacement. This improved purity enhances malleability; therefore less slag remains, rather than atomic reduction due to temperature, or affecting grain size without heat treatment of the metal.
