Habibi of Morocco has been telling dealers he supplied us with NWA 1110 and
so what he is selling is the same. This is not the truth as we do not do
business with Habibi and never will. If you check the images below you will
see we went directly to the source and recorded GPS coordinates:

dear list
i had found nwa1110 and it's me who give the sample to dr tony irving via
the hupes.
the photo published in nasa website are made from my degital camera a nikon
collpix.
any studies of the propritiey of the photo can proof that this photo is mine
well the real name who should have been advretised there is my name
this an other problem ,( proprity of the data).
so the stone published there are my stone and i stilll have them:
so also i have prooof that its me who give the sample for depository.
i have everthing with proofs and every emails abaout that .

nwa1110 is a scientific name and everyone can use it ,
if we do 100 classification this is confusing the collector and the wolrd of
meteorite.
i think its enough problem in this list i do not see realy the interst to
answer each day this story's
what is the interst to say all this.

the stone that are sold now are the real nwa1110; that's it and i have proof
of that
if i have to answer again abaout this subject i willl put everything on the
table .


let this list a little in peace and let us enjoy the real beautufull hobies
of this fantastic stones that make our life better

the real nice thing that this meteorite bring me is that i love them and i
find its good to collect them
they bring a lot of adrelanine in my life and give me a good raison to
collect them
why we go always to the bad thing and bargaining abaout lie, why we do not
dicuss the beuaty of the stone and hope that every collector get good stone
without jalousie.

this is life and every one his chance.
the most important is the meteorite and the hobies of collecting them
,that's it.
why always lie , abaout such beautifull stone

amgala than nwa1110 than nwa1877 than nwa 1836
what else
one day someone willl ask me if i m habibi or someone else.

all the best
aziz
