Fortunately I got the exact location; this meteorite fell at the Algerian/Mali boarder on July at a place called "Magtaa lafrayss". This is a short story of the name of "Magtaa Lafrayss: Magtaa; is an Arabic word means Roundabout. Lafrayss; is an Arabic word, the plural of "Lafrissa" this word means a Body of animal, or died Animal. A long long time ago, the Touareg called this place "Magtaa Lafrayss" because there was found a few died Camels, they did not know who killed them or the reason of the death. The possibility that a meteorite killed these camels is presented but it is very hard to make sure on. This meteorite is most likely be an H3 chondrite, a sample was sent for classification. I will post the result as soon as the classification is done. Currently, I am getting my orders, and will make it available for sale very sooner, for those who are interested please send me a email, I will keep your addresses until I start selling. More information on the exact time of the fall and eye witnesses is coming soon. Any email must be sent to: Alhyane_abdelaziz at yahoo.com or nwameteorites at yahoo.com My best Aziz ____________________________________________________________________________________ Pinpoint customers who are looking for what you sell. http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com/ Received on Tue 09 Oct 2007 06:29:09 PM PDT |
