>   Now I have found a MetBull from 2001, calling SAH 00225 an enstatite
>   chondrite. Most likely, my piece of SAH 00225 isn't 00225 at all, Has

>   Furthermore, what was the meteorite Michael sold as 00225 last year? Did
>   I swap numbers? Michael, do you still remember what you sold back then
>   or do you still own something from this meteorite?
>
>   Your help is very much appreciated.
>
>   A last question: does anyone know what the outcome of the classification
>   of NWA 1685 is? I still have it listed as "unclassified".
