Well as usual with Moroccan business, the rumors and half-truths never cease and only grow with the value of the stones. Half the Moroccans here have this material.
It is in the lab, confirmed same material, and is being sold at Tucson.
Like all Moroccan material, it passes through many hands on the way to final market.
You know it is the same meteorite, I know it, the scientists know it and the owners of the original mass know that much more material has come out.
So why waste time and effort to try and say it isn't? These games are one reason people are becoming tired of buying NWA meteorites.
What's next, all Tissint stones needs to be cut and confirmed too?
