Hi Gang,

Hi Gang,
Some thoughts from the peanut gallery :
UNESCO does not apply to meteorites.
The British mandate/order in regards to Indian meteorites is over 120
years old and India is not longer a territory of the British crown.
The late great O. Richard Norton was not a legal expert.
Laws (and mor
According to O. Richard Norton, and the Meteoritical Society, all meteorites
found in India are the property of the Geological Survey of India. In his
Field Guide to Meteors and Meteorites, Norton also states Gibeon meteorites
are illegal to export from Namibia.

UNESCO-1970 is not a law, but it is a convention to harmonize national laws
of the signing states.
Meteorites can be protected only by national laws.
(Like e.g Namibia, Canada, Australia, South-Africa did).
That is given in the convention's text.
Schmitt's information on Argentina is outdated.

This old paper has come up several times and is garbage as far as I am
concerned. The late Richard Norton was alarmed about how the UNESCO (laws?)
