Hello all,
Speaking of odd meteorite goings-on on eBay, some of you have probably
noticed the gold-plated Gibeon slices for sale. The description says
that the plating will prevent the meteorite from ever rusting. I know
Gibeon is generally not a ruster (not exclusively though, and I've got
a problem slice to prove it) but I'm skeptical of the claims. Is there
any truth to the plating process being effective?
Thanks,
Bob
