All knowing list,

A while back I visited Mike Martinez in Chile. He had
some dimethylglyoxime nickel test papers (like pH or
litmus strips). You hit the suspect iron with a bit
of acid, neutralize it with ammonia, and touch a test
strip to it to get a yes/no on nickel.

Does anybody know of a source for these test strips?

Thanks,

P.S., Stay tuned! I found 6 nice Nevada stonys Monday
and I'm headed back out tomorrow. I'm betting on 20
or 30 more! Full story coming---
