[meteorite-list] acid for pallasite

[CRAIG MOODY]

The very thought of it makes me cringe. The chances of getting crystals worthy of gem-stones, is slim. IMHO it would be sacrilege to destroy one of the most beautiful meteorite types, for a few gems and a little cash.

If there is rust between the olivines and iron, you will likely have to use an electrolytic process. KD Meteorites are the experts in doing this. If it is just a little bit of rust, then relish and then etch with Nital.
