Re: [meteorite-list] The Slovakian Fall
Mike and List I think we must be realy creazy that we spend importand Easter Hoolidays in the field :) Few days after Slovakia scientists announced their new finds I decided to make a small hunting group and try to search the fall area. We spend 3 days in Vysny Klatov and here is some photos from this hunt. http://www.polandmet.com/+vysny_klatov.htm -[ MARCIN CIMALA ]-[ I.M.C.A.#3667 ]- http://www.Meteoryty.pl marcin(at)meteoryty.pl http://www.PolandMET.com marcin(at)polandmet.com http://www.Gao-Guenie.com GSM: +48 (793) 567667 [ Member of Polish Meteoritical Society ] Dear List: I am a little surprised that there has been little discussion regarding Slovakia's new fall. It is the country's first recovery of a witnessed fall in over a century and appears to be at least a medium sized fall with hundreds of stones still to be recovered. Are any of our European friends hunting this strewnfield? What are Slovakia's laws regarding ownership, exportation, etc.? Surely I am not the only one interested in this very important fall. I would love to hear from our friends in Eastern Europe or those on the ground.

Re: [meteorite-list] The Slovakian Fall
Hi Mike, that would answer your question. Nevertheless, I think, we have to be careful with such third-hand information. Slovakia had only 5 meteorites (2 falls, 3 finds) in 7 generations, consequently that there would exist a law handling meteorites is very unlikely, if not absurd. We have to discern whether the reported statement reflects a real law or whether it is only an interpretation of a law, to prevent more finds or finds made by others than the searchers from the university. You know from that quality, that a mining law, a law about archaeological items or a vague law of natural objects of scientific interest (which could be interpreted also to cover your toenails' clippings) was overstretched by some juristic laymen (hence hearsay, as it happened e.g. in the poor-quality MAPS-article of Schmitt/McEwen regarding Switzerland). Or whether there does exist indeed a law explicitly mentioning meteorites. (Which would be a great curio and a good laugh for Slovak laws students) If so, it would be nice, if maybe Spurny or another list-member knowing the language could give the wordings of that law here on the list? ...well and else, if the Slovaks desire some larger main masses, they know where to address to - to the meteorite-list, where the best hunters are found. That method has proven to be the first choice for tkw-multiplying of the European falls and finds of our decade. ;-) Martin --- On Tue, 4/6/10, Mike Bandli fuzzf...@comcast.net wrote: From: Mike Bandli fuzzf...@comcast.net Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] The Slovakian Fall To: 'Mike Bandli' fuzzf...@comcast.net, 'Meteorite-list' meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Date: Tuesday, April 6, 2010, 5:47 AM A friend of mine forwarded me this link that states: According to Slovak laws, meteorites belong to the state.
