<fontfamily><param>Geneva</param>Dear list


I have two enquiries


1. I just got on E-bay a slice of NWA978. A beautiful R3, no doubt!
However the seller just mention "classified by UCLA". Is someone aware
of a published account on this rare NWA? I am wondering about pairing
with NWA573...


2. a fellow collector has got a while ago from a US dealer:

El Tigre Mexico 1993 Dec. 23 L6

however it is not officially declared, a surprising situation for a
meteorite fallen 8 years ago. Anyone knows about this meteorite?

(it looks effectively like a fresh L6)


Thanks in advance!</fontfamily>
