Hi all, Algeria has forbidden meteorite exportation some years ago. ( meteorite as well as any rock sample, even sand, all artefacts, etc...) Permit to export these items through the broders is not easy to have! For scientific purposes it works, for commercial purpose no. Lecture were given to custom officers, police and gendarmerie ( kind of MP) by Algiers university professors in 2004.
