Well, Jones, Rossi claims anomalous elements found on disrupted small regions on his Ni: Cr and Mn...
Also, there is plenty of Cu pipe, coated with Ni as the reaction surface, and as the cooling water pipe, and if I recall correctly, not supposed to be oxidized -- dimensions not given -- I recall dimly that the Ni is 0.1 mm thick. > You are mistaken.
