Hi Paul,
Lots of hokum pokem around about this subject, but I do remember (a
serious) documentary some time back on UK television ('Horizon' I

spherules (the mythical Brimstone) deposits that where found around the
area. I believe
Dear List Members,

Hello List,
When I came home from school today, I was pleased to see my 0.894-gram
basaltic shergottite NWA 4925 from Chladni's Heirs had arrived. What a
gorgeous, crystalline beauty from our orange neighbor. Have you ever
heard about those weird, orange inclusions in the ALH 84001 pyroxenite?
While US customers might be slowing down, other countries may have been
increasing. Many of the other currencies are up considerably like the
Canadian, Australian, New Zealand, Euro, etc.
Markets and circumstances change... they always have... they always will.

Of course their purchases disperse on US- and European dealers likewise,

Dear List;
I agree with Michael. It is a number of issues, one
being U.S. debt and taxing makes money tight as does
war. Another as Michael puts it is the cost of bread,
milk, and eggs, and gasoline which the common folks
need, and compete with the meteorite collector in for
pricing. Meteorite

At least at the present time, the U.S. drives the meteorite
market, which is why sales are slow. From a collecting
standpoint, meteorites are and have always been a luxury
item. Despite their rarity and scientific value, they do
not have the liquidity of other commodities, so they cannot
be used

From what I can make of it from your comments, the
