Glasscast 10/50 resin anomaly?

Stirred resin for 5 minutes then poured into another container and stirred for another 5 minutes.
Added a glasscast blue pigment and stirred for another couple of minutes to blend.
Done a 2mm pour and torched out bubbles but have observed this anomaly in a section of the pour.
Can someone tell me what’s going on here please?

To my eye, that looks more like some other darker contaminant in the mixed resin...

I had that kind of problem with my mixing sticks  having been contaminated with pigment powder used for  dyes (still chasing the kids around for stealing from my bag of mixing sticks :-)
