Dear List, All of this talk (baloney) that we never visited the Moon reminded me of the tremendous Northwest Africa 5000 cutting loss. I thought a few of you might be interested in some images of a record amount of sterile Moondust. At over a pound (470 grams), it exceeds the weight of all

Only a trickle is coming out these days. The sharp decline started over three years ago. Many Moroccans who used to deal meteorites have now gone back to their old jobs since there is no longer enough to support the trade. Others have raised their wholesale prices beyond retail of a few years

I don't think that was a lama at all. It looks like a well-known meteorite hunter and camera ham incognito to me. I can tell by the bad toupee, lamb-chop sideburns, goatee and Billy-Bob teeth; take them away and you he still looks the same; pretty clever but no cigar! The only thing missing

That means the average sized meteorite/fragment found at the Grove Mountain, Antarctica site weighs only 10.5 grams. I think if we counted every fragment from the hot deserts, the recovery number would be near 500,000 by now. I have over 15,000 individuals/fragments in my inventory alone

Wow, I better break out the checkbook. It sounds like this guy knows what he is talking about. It is like all of the other strange multimillion dollar offerings on eBay lately. I noticed that none of these fake stones look like Dimmitt or any other ordinary chondrite, only high-priced pieces.

I should be pleased that his price per gram is highest on the NWA 5000 pairing. He only rates his NWA 998 pairing at $1,000.00/gram. With this guy's fantastic run of luck, he should soon have a pairing to ALH84001. I can hardly wait, Adam - Original Message From: Norbert
