It looks like it’s still on the ship.
Whenever something like this is found the finders take photos of it for their own use and alert the media which hotfoots to the dock for more photos.
Whatever research group ends up with it will submerge it in a fresh water solution to leach the salt out, like you are saying. It can just take a while for it to get to the proper place.

You’re welcome.
Interesting thing. In the picture you can see where some parts are lighter than the rest and a knife is setting beside the head. It looks like someone scraped the accretion off to get a better picture.
A researcher with a thimble full of knowledge would never have done that. Big no no.

LOL! Whatever, it’s an awesome figure. Maybe some sailor did that.
