Even though my Fukang still looks stable - I got it in 2006 - my vote is for
Esquel. I have a very thin (ca. 1-2 mm) slice with translucent olivines that
I got from Gregor Pacer about 10 years ago...not the slightest trace of rust!
I also have a 7 mm-thick slice of Esquel ... not a trace a rust either.

..and, maybe that's once again the magic word "correct preparation".

When I got a small piece of Quijingue from AL in 2002, someone warned
me about it being a severe ruster. It is still as stable and looks exactly
as it did six years ago!

Best pre-Easter Wishes,
