I think Rob's embargo period, which would address Doug Ross's and Mike Miller's
concerns, is a great solution to this issue.

Hello,
Getting ready to head to the field tomorrow ... I will be running a huge sale
for a lot of the days I will be gone. However, I will not be able to ship
anything till the at least the 17th of October. Just depends how it goes in the
field.
Tomorrow is my last mailing day, so if you purch
Hi Rob,
Thank you for a wise, logical and well balanced response.
We do need to maximize the accuracy and volume of the data for science and at
the same time allow
the hunters in the field some level of confidentiality of the find coordinate
data.
This said, it is commendable when individ
Considering my neophyte hunting experience, I believe the less published
info after initial fall coordinates are validated elevates the challenge I
hope to learn. Mike Miller mentions individual approaches...critical to
what I hope to learn on my own.

Hello All,

Hi All,
I would concur with Doug Ross's and Mike Miller's take on the meteorite
coordinate publication problem, and would opine that the least-offending
solution is to embargo coordinates for some period of time to respect
the
efforts of hard-working meteorite hunters while still satisfying the

Hi Marc,
That is a really tough question you have brought up, and I can see both sides.
Even with the extremely helpful aid of radar analysis, it can still take a
tremendous amount of search time and effort to make the first recoveries from a
new fall, so I don't blame finders for feeling prot

Hi All,
Marc Fries has asked, "...is it really necessary to hide the find locations?"
The answer should be obvious when one consider's the following; in many foreign
countries, it is illegal to take a find out of the jurisdiction, let alone sell
it, even if it was found on private property. In
Hi Paul -
No question Laura Knight is more than a little nuts. When you work in impact,
you end up with nuts of various stripes going after you/ latching onto your
work, often coming in from entirely different directions.

Hello all first of all old habits die hard, so even if there is less
reason to be secretive we will tend to lag behind in making the
change. Now yes the radar is awesome and puts us close enough to find
the strewn field. It even gives us a very good idea where to look for
more pieces. There are sti
Hi Marc, List,
First off, THANKS for all your efforts Marc. Publishing this data is a
valuable resource to the meteorite community and the scientific
meteoritics world at large.
"...is it really important to hide the find locations?..."
Only if there is a monetary or legal reason to do so.
Well said Michael

You already have professional riff raffs that cause trouble ... does not seem
to matter. The goal is to get the meteorites out of the field as soon as
possible, get them to science, get them to collectors, get them preserved. I

Keeping it secret would weed out the unprofessional riff raffs that could
potentially cause problems for everybody.

Hi Marc and list,
I think your right with the
Radar pin pointing the field of fall I think there is no need to hold back
cords of finds. We all know that they are there and for the most part we all
know that if you find one the finder will search the whole surrounding area so
what's the point.
Seems like having the find coordinates did not help to find any more of
Sutter's Mill than would have been found once the location of the first find
was made based on your radar data. The most important benefit is in mapping
out a strewn field which will help but only if enough pieces are found an
Greetings all
I've been talking with a few people about logging the Battle Mountain
meteorites, and I'd like to start some discussion on the topic of find
coordinates. This is NOT directed at any one person, but I would like to
editorialize a bit. I'm getting a lot of push-back about pr
Greetings Listees,
This week I have several different Lunar and Martian meteorite
specimens available. The first is a lot of 10 different specimens. I
am ready to break up the lot into individual specimens. Here is a
