[meteorite-list] Provenance of Universities' Material

[Adam Hupe]

Most museums and institutions who recognize rarity and value now integrate world-class NWA specimens into their collections.  The Royal Ontario Museum comes to mind who has an amazing collection.  I think the ratio will favor hot-desert finds soon.  Their beauty rarity and value cannot be ignored.  A meteorite has no control where it lands.  A meteorite is a still a meteorite once a meteoroid touches the Earth.  We are fortunate that the Sahara desert preserves them well.


Kind Regards,
