Hi Y'all
It would be nice to here from the NomCom in regards to this for my
education.
I do not have any issue with each meteorite (fragment/size or other)
being classified/submitted/approved for several reasons.
I very much appreciate the effort.
Would like to know more about the requests/submissions/ what is
required/involved for approval of pairing groups, etc. I know what the
guidelines say.
Are there existing pairing groups out there?
Have a great day!

No,
Apologies to all members of the Nom.Comm who might be reading the Met
List, but no, they did not find 41 meteorites in the Gobi, they found
41 Fragments of ONE meteorite.
Just read the descriptions, and they are all identical: found within
48 hours, in an area of less than 4 square kilometers, all of them L5,
S=5 and W=2, almost identical composition. No, 41 fragments of 1
meteorite.
Sorry, this is a blatant example of a pairing system that is not working.
All buying of ............... You know the rest.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Met Bulletin Update - 43 New Approvals and 1
Lunar (The Gobi Desert Opens Up)
Hi Bulletin Watchers,
Well, some of us had wondered in the past : Is there another untapped
concentration of meteorites waiting to be found outside of NWA and
Antarctica. Some (including myself) postulated that the Gobi desert
was a possibility. In recent times, we are seeing more meteorites
coming out of the Gobi. While these may never surface on the private
market (or at least to the degree that NWA has), it appears the Gobi
meteorites are there and are being recovered in increasing numbers.
There are 43 new approvals - most are OC's from China and the Gobi.
There is also an iron from Brazil and 4 new meteorites from the NWA
DCA, including a lunar.
