Hi Ed,
If you would prefer to not use oil or other materials on your meteorites
another way to prevent rust is to store in a dry container. In BC you
probably have high humidity like in the San Francisco area and I find
storage with desiccant and a vapor proof container to be sufficient for most
meteorites.
