Resistivity of conducting putty?

I'm trying to find the resistivity of conducting putty at room temperature and I've been looking all over google with no success. There isn't really anything more I can do to work it out so I'm wondering if anyone here knows. Thanks :)

hmm … you're not very good at using google …

the first hit for "resistivity of conducting putty" is http://www.ibotz.com/conducting-putty.html which says of its product …
A cylinder 60mm long and 20mm in diameter has a resistance of approximately 20 Ohms.
… so what is the resistivity?
