Hi list, I am about to send a couple of boxes of unclassified meteorites,
sourced from Carlos Pareja Minerales, on eBay, to Dr Alex Bevan at the W.A.
museum.
Has anyone on the list also sourced some of these specimens from Carlos.
Carlos sourced these from the Rissani market in Morocco. I'm not sure what
year.
If so, has anyone else put them in somewhere for identification, or has
anyone cut or faced one.
I faced one and it has me rather stumped.
Any further info would be greatly appreciated.
If someone would like a couple of pics, please feel free to email me for
them.
Cheers, Kevin Forbes, VK3UKF.
