It makes no difference whatsoever whether a meteorite is classified or not when
originating from Northwest Africa as far as legalities go. People who spread
the rumor that the export of meteorites from Morocco are illegal seem to have
an agenda. A dealer once tried to make it so you needed a special permit but
this failed. I believe this was to get an exclusive on material coming out of
NWA as this would have served as an effective roadblock to others.
The truth is simple: It is completely legal to obtain meteorites from Morocco,
period!
All the best,
Adam

Hi Adam, Carl, Peter, All,
That's strange. This is the second time in three weeks I've heard the NWAs were
illegal. At least I think what was meant was the unclassified NWAs are. Adam,
would that make any difference?
