Stan, If you have something official please present it for consideration. The official weight of NWA 1839 is 122 grams. Regardless of what a Moroccan may tell you about additional stones, something of this magnitude has to be tested. If more weight is being claimed for NWA 1839 it should be tested and claimed in a NomCom approved way. Do not forget that there are other laboratories working on this besides NAU that have not weighed in the issue yet. I have seen nothing official in regards to a NWA 1839/3133 pairing. I have also never seen an updated classification submission. As a matter of fact, I have never seen a NWA 1839 specimen. With out the facts I make no assumptions regarding pairings. If in doubt, have it checked out.
