[meteorite-list] Meteorite-list Digest, Vol 261, Issue 14

Fri Mar 15 02:33:59 EDT 2024

After reading this email, I would expect Mr. Mohamed to retract his
previous email as it does not appear that his material has been
authenticated by a proper researcher.  Making claims about material that
hasn't properly been identified is not something to be taken lightly and
would be cause for concern to most collectors, self included.
