What is a good way to store/display meteorites in micromounts?
I am interested in having the ability to display some, and the ability
to store others while not having them scratech and being easy to read

Dear concerned,
I would not use sponge as it usually contains
vinyl chlorides which will oxidize iron with water
vapor present. Cotton in my humid climate...even
paper...is a no no because it tends to absorb water in
my climate in Tokyo. Good luck! Dirk Ross.Tokyo

Hi,
Of course! Vinyl Chlorides! - that answers a long standing question I
have had.. I was wondering why a some Micro's I had in Foam (sponge)
cases where rusting and all the others in membranes etc and out in the
open were all fine (even ones from the same fall).
I especially found that small

Nothing beats the membrane boxes for storing meteorites, especially

Check out the chondrule-like structures in this rock:

It's harder than steel, softer than quartz and does not react to HCl acid,
seems to lack metal.
Opinions anyone?

Looks like a geode to me. What leads you to think its a meteorite?

Hello List,
certainly more a reader than a writer on this list, I today have a special question to
all of you and I hope someone out there has some answers for me. I need to know more

Sorry... looks distressingly like a lump of slag I received under the guise
of being a meteorite from a dealer in Canada. The frothing that went on
when I told him I had submitted it to the University of Arizona for testing

Hello Volker and List,
The only entries in my databases from China's Hebei Province
that sound a bit like your Yanshan that I can come up with
are these two historical falls:
YECHENG (220) - WEST OF LINZHANG CO.
Meteorite shower
Latitude: 36° 21'
Longitude:114° 36'
Date of Fall: 220
YECHENG
Following up on Bernd´s post:
A meteorite that somehow even more closely sounds like what was quoted
as Yanshan is YANGCHIANG, a single 20 kg H5 stone that fell in China
on April 12, 1954. Here is what the remarks section of MetBase 6.0
