I might try putting dessicant in the bottom of the jar with tissue paper on
top of the dessicant. Meteorite goes on top of tissue paper. Now pump out
the air. If the meteorite is first treated with alcohol, lye, and baking
as per previous posts, it may last forever!
But don't use a pickle jar. Get Mason (canning) jars.
