I only had a limited amount of material and all was too nice to cut except the smaller piece I cut for comparison reason to show List members. Someone asked to buy that piece for their collection so I accommodated them. Which Moroccan sent in the type sample so we can expect the results.
Thank you, Greg ==================== There really is no reason for Moroccan (or north African) meteorites to come on the market without having been studied and classified. Not anymore. Dr. Hassna Chennaoui of the University of Casablanca is fully qualified and accredited to do that. I am sure it would be very simple and easy for anyone in Morocco to send a sample to her, and, since this service is not very well-known yet, she will probably give you a response much faster than the Musee d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris or any of the Labs in the US. Maybe you should contact her: Universite Hassan II Casablanca, Faculte des Sciences, Department de Geologie: http://www.fsac.ac.ma/depart/geo/index.html. Anne M.
