dear list
i had found nwa1110 and it's me who give the sample to dr tony irving via the hupes.
the photo published in nasa website are made from my degital camera a nikon collpix.
any studies of the propritiey of the photo can proof that this photo is mine
well the real name who should have been advretised there is my name
this an other problem ,( proprity of the data).
so the stone published there are my stone and i stilll have them:
so also i have prooof that its me who give the sample for depository.
i have everthing with proofs and every emails abaout that .
nwa1110 is a scientific name and everyone can use it ,
if we do 100 classification this is confusing the collector and the wolrd of meteorite.
i think its enough problem in this list i do not see realy the interst to answer each day this story's
what is the interst to say all this.
the stone that are sold now are the real nwa1110; that's it and i have proof of that
if i have to answer again abaout this subject i willl put everything on the table .
let this list a little in peace and let us enjoy the real beautufull hobies of this fantastic stones that make our life better
the real nice thing that this meteorite bring me is that i love them and i find its good to collect them
they bring a lot of adrelanine in my life and give me a good raison to collect them
why we go always to the bad thing and bargaining abaout lie, why we do not dicuss the beuaty of the stone and hope that every collector get good stone without jalousie.
this is life and every one his chance.
the most important is the meteorite and the hobies of collecting them ,that's it.
why always lie , abaout such beautifull stone
amgala than nwa1110 than nwa1877 than nwa 1836 what else one day someone willl ask me if i m habibi or someone else.
all the best aziz

Dear List,
It has come to my attention that some sellers are still using the NWA 1110 designation to sell there untested material. It is not a marketing ploy that I bring this up as we are nearly out of stock and we start all of our true NWA 1110 auctions out at just 99 cents. Here are the problems:
We had Dr. Irving at the University of Washington authenticate every piece
we have ever sold or plan to sell. All of it is recorded at 118 grams can
be seen at the JPL/NASA Martian web site. Other dealers selling NWA 1110
have not gone to this expense We have only supplied one dealer from Austria
with NWA 1110 and he is sold out.
We paid the research and authentication costs associated with every piece of
NWA 1110
We deposited a type sample (something important if want your very own NWA number)
We paid the cost to go into the field, monitored the recovery efforts and recorded GPS coordinates.
Habibi of Morocco has been telling dealers he supplied us with NWA 1110 and
so what he is selling is the same. This is not the truth as we do not do
business with Habibi and never will. If you check the images below you will
see we went directly to the source and recorded GPS coordinates:

To see auctions like the one I linked to below really irritates us because no laboratory has tested this material, the dealer should deposit a type specimen, pay the lab fees and get his very own NWA number so that every gram of meteorites paired to NWA 1068 can be recorded if they are indeed meteorites.
This is what I would like to say to the person running this ebay auction "Stop using NWA 1110, get a real number, put out some effort, there is no such thing as a free ride": http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3239&item=2268561021
Wishing everybody the best,
