Hmm Greg,
We dont borrow numbers becouse.... we don't, its not fair in relations to 
buyers and sellers who "own" their NWA numbers and its not profesional to 
offer material paired by eye.
But with the names we can ?  I know, its neverending story :) and Im stick 
rod to the ant-hill.

Correct me, but we make classifications of each of our stones even if we 
know for 100% that this is NWA xxx or NWA yyy. So we also should send  to 
one lab samples of  Mali fall to be sure that specimens we purchased are 
Mali fall, but not Bassikounou or Benguerir or what else they have still in 
basements. Just to be fair to the buyers and sure what we sell. From the 
other side, me, You and others are skilled enough to be able to recognize if 
specimen we have is Bassi, Amgala or Benguerir or something that looks 
different and never seen before. I can name corectly each stone I have even 
if it have no label.
Conclusion ?
Noone ask anyone where did You buy this stones and why You are sure its 
Bassikounou if You not make Your own classification or even send a thin 
section for compare to the original samples deposited in laboratory. We dont 
borrow numbers but we borrow names. But what is a difference ? :)
