I bought the meteorite in Morocco,it came from Algeria that same day. The Moroccan man who found all the NWA 2975/2986 stones died in Algeria while going to the location. Those Martian meteorites are from Algeria. Michael Farmer Sent from my iPad On Jul 30, 2012, at 12:44 PM, Jeff Grossman

Hi all - We see adds for unclassified NWAs by the kilo. Clearly the Moroccans would like to be able to directly sell unclassified NWAs mentioning possible classes. I am pretty certain that when finders come in with stones for them, they have to make eyeball determinations. Can not some
