I suspect it’s the source that is the ‘mystery’, not the contents of the liquid, which could be easily determined in a few days via lab testing which I assume they will have done early on. Again, poor wording in the article.
A few minutes in my lab. X Ray fluorescence or Atomic Absorption spectroscopy would give an answer very quickly indeed.
