Dear List,

Here I am receiving a message from Professor Albert Jambon (Paris
university, world expert in studying end determining planetary meteorites).

Albert has an excellent suggestion:
to vote for one of our eminent colleagues, Professor Hasnaa Chennaoui, for
the "Khmissa Trophy", a renown Moroccan price awarding a woman who had
proven particular merits in her domain (Art, Culture, Sport, Social
Development...and R&D in Science). The 25 selected nominees (see web site
below) did conduct a brillant career in their specific domain with
significant achievements performed on a sober but efficient basis.

You all might well know Hasnaa, as meteorite expert.
She is Professor in Geochemistry in Hassan II university of Casablanca,
member of the locall Executive Committee "Scientific Woman in Morocco".
On an international basis, not only member of the Meteoritical Society but
also member of the Nom. Com. !
She was the main organizer of the Casablanca Workshop "Meteorites from Hot
Deserts" (August 2006), that was the actual pre-conference of the
Z?rich-2006 Met. Soc. Meeting.

Hasnaa has many scientific publications, international communications and
invited lectures related to meteorites.
In particular, you might know that she was the one who collected, studied,
determined and classified the famous BENGUERIR fall.

We had the pleasure to invite her as special guest during the 2005
Ensisheim show, where she presented her scientific results on Benguerir in
two original posters (you might be able to still find the corresponding
pics on the site of Peter Marmet, and probably others).
She was then rewarded by becoming and enthroned member of the Ensisheim
meteorite Guardians.

Albert and myseld believe it could be particularly important for all of us,
meteorite experts, scientists, collectors or "simple afficionados" to have
a competent and reliable representative officially honored in Morocco, an
unavoidable and pioneering country in terms of preserving and valorizing
the meteorite heritage in Sahara and other world hot deserts.
