[meteorite-list] bengrir fall

[Greg Hupe]

Hello Habibi,

Thank you for the photos of the new fall. The next step is to get GPS 
coordinates, witness statements, location of fall (nearest village, town or 
city). I do not think the military will mind you gathering this data as we 
(our Moroccan partners) ran into the same scenario with Amgala. Of course 
buying the material from them directly did not hurt. However this case may 
be, we encourage you to collect this data NOW before any witnesses "forget" 
what they heard, saw, smelled or felt. You are in the forefront on this one, 
go get the data and submit it to the lab that will analyze your type sample 
(or whoever submits it first).

Being that the reported fall was near or in Marrakech, finding a GPS should 
not be a problem. In fact, Mike Farmer arrived in Morocco today so perhaps 
you can join up with him again, call his guide. I suspect he has a GPS with 
him. I think he may be chasing down that other iron meteorite that fell this 
month in the Atlas Mountains. Amazing that all of these falls are there.

Were there any small complete stones recovered yet? If not, just another 
reason to talk to the eye witnesses and then you should be able to figure 
out which direction it traveled and find the smaller complete stones. Put me 
down for a couscous-bag full of complete oriented ones ;-)

Best of luck,

Greg
