Good luck to this "friend" who thinks he can get a
kilo. If you pay $200 gram to the owners of the ~680
gram fragment, and the other two guys Bjorn Sorheim
and Michael Mazur who refuse to admit how much
material they have. There is perhaps a kilo to come
out, but seeing is believing I like to say.
This meteorite is rare enough that I sold over 20
grams today to NASA for study, so there it is.
I do have more pieces, but not many with fusion crust
left, most are under a gram, but a couple in the 2 to
4 gram range I think and a couple of larger pieces.
Some people have asked where my website page for MOSS
went. Well, I pulled it because I have no photos yet,
the two I used before are not mine, and they show the
location, which I and my partners do not want shown
yet, as one of them is still searching the area, and
why show the competition the treasure chest until it
is cleaned out? So I expect my film rolls to arrice
next week and will build a better page for Moss.
Besides, we might have a tentative classification by
middle of next week.
