Hi Frédéric, Rafael, List, This time Matteo was completely right by stating that Jiddat Al Harasis is a "place" in Oman, far from Lybia and the DAG plateau. I wish to point out once more such mistakes as some collectors consider a precise locality as very important. I have also seen elsewhere (a web site) such a mistake with Sayh al Uhaymir (Oman) also supposed being in Lybia.... Knowing Sergey and his expertise, not only in meteorites but in their precise locations, I bet it is just an inadvertence or some unwilling mistake from him. In case of doubt, just refer to this superb handy reference that is "Meteorites from A to Z" (and I am so happy to learn that the new edition is almost issued!)
