The correct number is NWA 4880 not 4480 as listed a
few times in my weekly advertisement. Please note
this correction.


Dear List Members,

I would like to take this opportunity to announce the
nomenclature for a new Martian Shergottite. For those
who purchased any of this new Martian meteorite from
me, the provisional number is NWA 4880. Current
owners, please email me your address and I will be
happy to send you a color ID card. For those who have
not picked any up yet, I am running 18 outstanding
examples on eBay. This may be a chance for some of
you to add a complete certified Martian Shergottite
individual to your collection as none of these are
fragments.

Here is a brief description:

NWA 4880 (Provisional), a Rare Basaltic Martian
Shergottite found this year in the Sahara desert. This
scarce Martian meteorite represents one of the
freshest Shergottites yet found to date. A Total Known
Weight (TKW) of 82 grams consisting of 35 small
individuals was officially recorded under the NWA 4480
designation. There are pairings to this exceptional
find but most dealers did not bother to have their
pieces made official so the true TKW will never be
known. I donated 20% to satisfy type specimen
requirements, paid the classification costs and a
report has been submitted to the Nom Com committee for
formal acceptance. Officially recognized meteorites
are worth far more than their unstudied counterparts
so please bid accordingly. Every piece of NWA 4480 is
certified so bid with confidence as these are real
unlike some bogus (unstudied and sometimes not
authentic) material out there.
