I had a phone talk with Ed Thompson, who brought in the El Hammami & just
recently told A. Rubin these same details.
Hamada du Draa and El Hammami are the same fall. The circumstances of
exporting a meteorite from that part of the world resulted in H d D being
labelled "Algeria" and EH from "Mauritania".
