Hello Mike, Mike and List,

Doesn't the Canadian government have first right of refusal on any meteorite
sales/purchases? I thought I read from one of our Canadian List members that
only after the Canadian government, museum or such, has opted not to
purchase a meteorite, then the "land owner" has the right to sell the
meteorite(s).

I'd like to hear from our Canadian friends to see if there is a clear
definanition of the Canadian law regarding this.

Best regards,
Greg

> Hi All

> McCartney also mentioned that people from all around the area are

> The good news is they were able to get permission to hunt on some

> 12 hours so if you are interested in buying one please email McCartney
> ASAP so he can ship them before he leaves the country.
> He will have access to the internet later tonight so please email him
