 One of the great deserts and semidesert regions of
the world, the Gobi stretches across Central Asia over
large areas of Mongolia and China. It occupies an arc
of land 1,000 mi (1,609 km) long and 300-600 mi
(500-1,000 km) wide, with an estimated area of 500,000
sq mi (1,300,000 sq km). Since NWA and Oman are being
hit hard for meteorites I contacted the US Embassy in
Mongolia who will pursue their avenues to see if
meteorites can be bought and exported from Mongolia.
Let's see what turns up...........
