In an iron molding process and in a mold for carrying out the process, in which the mold is at least locally coated with tellurium or bismuth to promote the production of a white iron structure there is included in the coating a water-bearing substance in which the water is loosely chemically combined tightly enough so that it withstands the heat involved in drying of the mold but is liberated on contact with the molten iron.
