Hi Tom, Darren & Mark and good question. The answer,
as far as we understand it, is that a 7.5kg stone was
found sometime in 2003. It was either broken or fell
apart into pieces which were then sold. Each person
that then submits a sample from this stone for
classification is assigned a unique NWA number. Ours
is NWA 2714. So conceivably there could be 3 or 4
different NWA numbers referring to different parts of
the same stone. It is amost exactly analogous to the
NWA 1069, NWA 1110, NWA 2373, etc set of numbers which
refer to different stones from the same fall, with the
exception that in the latter case the stones
presumably broke apart before they hit the ground.

Cheers


-John & Dawn
