I was at an abandoned quarry and found a rusted spike.

Where I have been digging rust turns to dust in a very short time. To much salt and humidity here to let any metal survive.

Around here we get the same thing. It depends on the type of metal. Some rust just is horrible and rubs off on your hands. If you clean it off the rust returns before it dries out. Then there is the rust that gets hard as a rock and will not rub off or stain your hands orange.
