I think in water and in the mud is much less oxygen than in the air so it
rust slower.
I hope they will get something larger than a kilo or two.

Chely is very solid, while there will be some damage, I think it will be
not nearly as bad as you might think.

The thick mud at the bottom of Lake Chebarkul is surely very oxygen-poor.
But, the stone will have been completely saturated now, like a sponge.
So the minute they remove it from the mud, the oxidation will begin
rapidly, unless they undertake measures to stabilize it.

Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] First fragment of Chelyabinsk meteorite
raised
from bottom of Lake Chebarkul
Shouldn't that fragment be much more rusted if it came from the bottom
of
the lake?
I've seen ugly fragments on eBay that looked much worse, and they
weren't
sitting at the bottom of a lake for 6 months.
???
