A refractory shape having improved resistance to erosion in metal melting vessels and high modulus of rupture, comprising an anhydrous refractory material, an anhydrous organic binder, from 0.3% to about 30% finely divided elemental carbon having a particle size ranging from 0.01 to about 1 mm, and from 0.3% to about 10% particulate elemental magnesium, based on the weight of the refractory shape. Addition of both elemental carbon and elemental magnesium results in a synergistic improvement in slag erosion resistance. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1. A chemically bonded refractory shape having improved resistance to erosion for use in a steel making plant wherein the hot face of the shape is subjected to temperatures of at least about 1600. degree. C. and the cold face is shielded from oxygen penetration, consisting essentially of an anhydrous refractory material, an anhydrous organic binder in an amount sufficient to bond said refractory material, from 0. 3% to about 3% finely divided elemental carbon having a particle size ranging from 0. 01 to about 1 mm, and from 0. 3% to about 3. 5% particulate elemental magnesium, based on the total weight of the refractory shape. 2. The refractory shape claimed in claim 1, containing from about 0. 5% to about 2. 7% elemental carbon in the form of graphite or carbon black having a particle size ranging from about 0. 05 to about 0. 08 mm, and from about 0. 5% to about 3. 0% elemental magnesium. 3. The refractory shape claimed in claim 1, wherein the sum total of elemental carbon plus elemental magnesium is at least about 2. 0%. 4. The refractory shape claimed in claim 1, wherein said refractory material is derived from at least one of magnesia, doloma, and alumina, and said binder is coal tar or petroleum pitch. 5. The refractory shape claimed in claim 4, containing about 3% to about 5% of said pitch, based on the total weight of the refractory shape. 6. The refractory shape claimed in claim 1, wherein said elemental magnesium has a particle size up to about 0. 50 mm. 7. The refractory shape claimed in claim 1, wherein said organic binder comprises about 3% to about 5% anhydrous resin, based on the total weight of the refractory shape. 8. The refractory shape claimed in claim 1, wherein said shape is a brick used in a steel making plant. 9. A chemically bonded refractory brick which, during service in a metal melting vessel, develops a dense zone of magnesium oxide within said brick adjacent the hot face thereof, said hot face being subjected to temperatures of at lest about 1600
