first place? The thrill of the hunt took precedence? If you consider all the
ill will between Muslim fundamentalists and the rest of the planet why bother
exploring that region. Should we call it greed, stupidity,

The reason for Quartzite is not meteorites. There are dealers there with
other stones I wish to acquire. Its just the way it is.

Maybe its a warning to all . Dont go there for meteorite hunting becouse we
put You all in jail.
They now know what they have on their deserts and what value this material
have (vide Omani + Swiss hunting).
But from the other side, there is something that I dont understand.

Hi Marcin and List
I would suspect that it actually has nothing to do with meteorites or rocks
at all.
It may have to do with whats going on over there and they do not want to be
accused of not being able to protect tourists. They might not be able to
protect their own people and so foreigners
Hi Bill,
I guess you didn't read the complete email from John. He said there is
a grey area concerning the meteorite hunting laws in Oman. There have
been many hunting/adventure trips to Oman by list members recovering
meteorites. I understand this is the first time this has happened and

Dear List,
Jeff may have this volume in his literature but I thought it might be
worth mentioning. Coon Mountain Controversies by Hoyt published by
University of Arizona is THE reference volume on Meteor Crater.
I also think it is worth mentioning that Dr. Shoemaker's USGS paper on

Thanks for your most eloquent post. I see your point, but I also take the

Dear Listees:
I'd like to send a sincere welcome home to my neighbor John Blennert,
and the rest of the Omani nine. Being detained in a foreign country for
well over a month must have been an ordeal for them all.
I hope everyone now clearly understands why requests were made to

I have a number of meteorites ending in a few hours including a 13.84 gram
slice of Yilmia, an Australian enstatite, currently less than $7.50/gm as well
as a 5.69 gram tatahouine that is still less than $5/gm and others.

Well dang, Dave. Just tell everybody. We have been watching that
piece very quietly without bothering anybody. Now you've probably
started a whole ruckus of bidding wars over it. Shucks!

Mark,
That's a mental trap fallen into by numerous minds over the ages.
Sort of a clap-trap snare, as it were. It's also a sieve that serves
to separate the detritus from the plausible.
Obviously, Dr. N. H. Darton of the U. S. Geological Survey,
1946, jumped in with both feet and eyes wide closed.

Hola Adam,
I need to add my support to Mark F and Darren's openminded interpretation of
your negative assessment of the (lack of) feasibility getting Lunar material
FOB Earth at a cost (mind you, not price) below $5000 per gram. The
optimistic figure starts at about $1 per POUND, cheaper
So how about the possibility that TPTB in Oman suddenly realized that hey,

those crazy Westerners are picking up are worth lots of money!? After all,

from the desert, and

Any good that you did by giving away free meteorites has been invalidated
