Hi Ian, Well said. I agree that Australia should protect it's borders to prevent massive outflow of meteorites to foreign destinations - one could argue the dynamic of it, but in the end, the meteorites end up leaving and most don't come back. But, the government should not deter it's own citize

The only actual "curator" would be Jim Hartman, Ron's son. I worked with Jim over the course of 12 months to acquire a large amount of the collection. I know of 3 other people who also bought from Jim. The only thing I am calling myself is grateful. A fair number of these pieces will remain in m

 Hi all. In response to MikeG >>But, one has to wonder - if Australia's laws were not so restrictive, private hunters would be recovering and classifying more Australian meteorites than the scientists would have time to examine.  I could not agree more in regards to state laws and regulations.
