Rockwood Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 One time before we replaced the septic system at camp the guy came with a small barrel of hydrogen peroxide to pour into the drain. Apparently it eats away organic matter. I suspect that may be the liquid solution, but I've not heard of it being commonly used as a test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randyw Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 I’ve heard of a salt water solution instead of burn test for amber but nothing for fossils... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
