Im gonna say that the glaciers are saltwater based and or fell into saltwater making the iron rust into a red color. Also maybe there is strong winds where the glaciers at making the iron rust.]]> 2020-09-01 16:57:12 UTC https://padlet.com/marystanek/qzods5wnlefjy76j/wish/712455747 Article #1 marystanek https://padlet.com/marystanek/qzods5wnlefjy76j/wish/712461198 Red Rust


Hydrated oxide Fe2O3•H2O
(high oxygen/water exposure)

Rust from Iron (III) oxides forms due to high oxygen and water exposure resulting in red rust.


  • Red rust is the result of heavy exposure to air and moisture, combined many times with a contaminate (salt).
  • This type of rust is most likely atmospheric because typically there are no signs of rust runs or streaks on the metal parts/equipment where the rust has formed.
  • With red rust, there is uniform corrosion, most often from a very corrosive environment.
