Hello Mark and List,

I would calculate the mater of supply in months. I have been informed =
that the Moroccan government has confiscated its first stone(a 20 or 34 =
kilogram mesosiderite C) from a very reliable source. It seems permits =
were not honored and old fossil laws were put into play. It is just a =
matter of time when these treasures will not be allowed to leave the =
country, remember Australia. Sure some enterprising group will try to =
work with Algeria or Mauritania to get around Morocco but forget it. I =
have heard rumors for a long time but this is the first confirmed case =
that a stone was actually confiscated. The ice has been broken now =
making it more and more difficult in the future to legally obtain NWA =
meteorites. I would consider this first confiscation a wakeup call.

All the best,

Adam

  . ok, Back to a meteorite related topic ;

  =20

  what's everybody's 'guestimate' on how many years supply there is left =
in 'NWA' ?=20

  =20

  Given we know the [approximate] potential number of meteorites per =
square mile and the size of the deserts , and we must have an =
approximate idea of how many tons of material have come out of the =
desert ? (hope youv'e all been keeping records) :) =20

  =20

  Anyone want to do the calculation.? ?
