Hello Mike, All,
With my most recent batches of submissions, I noticed that the more
interesting classifications were/are often held up due to insufficient
analytical justification (according to the folks in charge of
approving classifications). Equilibrated OC's all went through in a
matter of days or weeks, and the more interesting stones are...still
held up.
So when a list of equilibrated OC's like that comes up with ~10
missing numbers -- and all of the stones appear to have been submitted
by the same owner at the same time via the same classifying
institution -- you can be fairly certain that there are interesting
classifications still in the works.
Regards,
Jason

Subject: [meteorite-list] Met Bull Update - The NWA OC Rush Part Two,
Electric Boogaloo
To: Meteorite List meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com
Hi Bulletin Watchers,
18 new OC approvals, all from the NWA dense collection area. Nothing
too much to get excited about here, from a collector standpoint. But,
we have seen a definite increase in approvals in recent months (or so
it seems), and the number of official meteorites continues to climb.
The Saharan Gold Rush may be arguably over or well past it's peak, but
the classification process will be sorting these out for years to
come.
