    I have only seen that with large phone wires. Talking the bundles that are 3"-4" in diameter. They had a lead shielding around them but they were buried directly and not in conduit. Place I used to work melted off the lead in a sweat furnace and then sent the copper off. Now the trick is to find a bunch more and send it my way.
