Each container is constructed from thermally-treated tempered glass, and is stopped with cork. The containers should be held within a 68x34x34cm box made from reinforced rubber, inside a 150x150x300cm airlocked concrete bunker located in the basement of Site Basalt-7. No researchers are permitted to enter the containment location without authorization from Basalt-7 Site Director Ingrid.
All personnel entering SCP-6834's containment chamber are to wear hazmat suits, and receive a disinfecting chemical scrub by site biohazard staff before and after any access to the containment chamber - after which the chamber should once again be returned to an airtight vacuum state.
Any living creatures exposed to SCP-6834 should be immediately incinerated using high-power ranged incindiary devices, or any other source of engulfing flame available to Foundation Staff.
Description: SCP-6834 is a hybrid corrosive-ribonucleic orthornavirus that exclusively affects and manipulates metal. While typical biological virae tend to affect living creatures such as humans or animals, SCP-6834 will immerse itself into all known metallic substances and alloys, and convert any infected metallic matter into organic material - typically tumor-like masses of animal muscle, fat, and connective tissue, with occasional manifestations of common human organs, including eyes, kidneys, spleens, appendices, and skin. The infection of especially large objects such as buildings or vehicles are theorized by researchers to prompt the manifestation of more complex organs and appendages.
The first and only recorded outbreak of SCP-6834 occurred during Incident #5636-10 on the 16th of February 2020, when an individual under the influence of SCP-56361 introduced SCP-6834 to the inhabitants of an undiscovered safehouse belonging to the Cogwork Orthodoxy Church in Memphis, Tennessee. Following a labored and extensive containment effort by Foundation Biohazard and Fire Department staff, samples of SCP-6834 were returned to Foundation Biohazard Laboratory Sigma-F2 for further analysis. Selected results from the ensuing experimentation have been documented in Experiment Log #6834-1.
Although the origin of SCP-6834 is believed to be man-made and developed exclusively by a since-neutralized instance of SCP-5636-A, the details of how the virus was synthesized, and whether any other sources of SCP-6834 exist elsewhere, are unknown. Additionally, the similarity between the employment of SCP-6834 against the Cogwork Orthodoxy and the tactics employed against the Church of the Broken God and others by certain Sarkic organizations have been noted as cause for concern, although no known link appears to exist between SCP-5636-A and any Sarkic organization. On a related note - while the overlap in their effect has been noted, SCP-6834 does not appear to share any significant genealogy with SCP-610.
Experiment Log #6834-1: Location: Biohazard Laboratory Sigma-F2 Dates: February the 20th - March the 14th, 2020 Test #: Exposed Subject: Duration: Result: 001 1 x aluminium drinks can 5 minutes Total infection, subject converted into sizeable tumor.
