[meteorite-list] I have a problem with some rusting meteorites

[Tim Heitz]

Hey Sonny,

It's a little more than a slice  http://www.meteorman.org/Admire-839g.htm

I would seal it up in lucite,  if I thought that would work.

Nice try:)

Tim

Hi Tim,

The only  way to stop the rusting is to send your slices to me. This 
dry Nevada climate will most certainly stop the rusting!  : )

Hello List Members, 

I was hoping someone could help me with this one. 
I have 2 pallasites that are starting to show signs of rusting, an 
Admire and Fukang. 

Can someone please tell me what I can do to stop the rusting. Is there 
a way to clean 
them up and seal it against any further rusting.  I willing to try 
anything new that might work. 
Any ideas? 

I live in St.Louis, its very humid here, I know this might be hard to 
stop.
