FWIW- I think that NANTAN get's a bad rap just from how old the fall is, and there is typically a lot of external rust and terrestrialization after 500 some-odd years. Lawrencite disease doesn't seem to be a real problem with them from what I have seen. -Barrett
-----Original Message----- I have a ~120 kg endpiece of Nantan, cut by Robert Ward ~4 years ago, looks better than my cut Gibeon which shows some rust in Tucson, Nantan flawless. I will have many nice pieces of this Nantan in Ensisheim/St Marie next month.
