Hello Greg and List,
Yes, Mike and Jim did a fantastic job getting this wonderful meteorite to
the collector's world, but I do remember some great work that you and Adam
did with many of the scientist. I think I remember seeing pictures of you
guys at NASA, if I remember correctly, doing presentations on this stone.
That is what I meant by my comment in regards to you and Adam. Nothing was
meant to be taken away from Mike and Jim.
Take Care,
Jason

First, I must correct the fact that Mike Farmer and Jim Strope brought NWA
482 to the meteorite world. Adam and I were very fortunate to have been
the majority stake investors on their Moroccan expedition which produced
this One-of-a-Kind lunar Crown Jewel and we still hold the 312-gram
oriented main mass.
Jason, I can "Thank you" for recognition for NWA 2999 however, the
Angrite from the Sahara which started a lot of, "Where are Angrites from?"
abstracts and articles. I have been extremely fortunate to have been the
one source for all three of the Angrites emerging from NWA, and not to
mention my Saharan friends who helped to bring these to us. NWA 4801 and
NWA 4590 "Tamassint" are the freshest Angrites to have survived the
ravages of earth's "Mother Nature-effect" in her attempt to
'terrestrialize' alien matter once it hits the earth's surface. If
interested in Angrites, do not forget to pick up a copy of the current
issue of Astronomy magazine (November 2008), a good un-biased look at
whether Angrites are from Mercury or another body!
Best regards,
Greg

Hello Matt and List,
That is a great question and one that we are blessed to be able to ask
thanks to the NWA rush that we have been so fortunate to be a part of. I
would say:
NWA 482- The first NWA lunar that gave all of us a chance to own a piece
of the moon (and Greg and Adam did an excellent job of letting this
meteorite reach the scientists and the world).
NWA 2999- Which probably created more questions than actually shed light,
but they are great questions to be asked.
These are just two off the top of my head. I am excited to see what
others think are some of the greatest.
Take Care,
Jason

Hi all
I am going to give a presentation on meteorites from NWA and am curious
what you think (scientists and collectors), what the top 5 most
important meteorites from NWA would be. Which ones have shed new light
on our solar system?
Thanks,
Matt
