Bill, First point: the meteoriet is classified: it is a L3.8
your question certainly about official publication by tye Nomenclature Committee. I have no action nor influence on the Nom Com. I had plenty of discussions with Jutta Zipfel and Luigi Folco. Who are both in harge of the NWA 's ( Jutta ) and Sahara 's ( Luigi) . I have no idea of any timing for the descision they will take. My point is that I do not buy my meteorites in Morocco. They do not enter in the NWA category. I have a team working for me in the Sahara and I do not wish to disclose where. They shoudl be named Sahara as the one the Labenne discovered.
