Hi Alex and all,

Weren't some of the Nova specimens checked and confirmed to be from
another location using lodged soil in those specimens??

With the ability of scientists to really dissect the chemical components
of a meteorite apart using modern technology, trying to misrepresent a
meteorite these days is fool hardy at best. Misrepresent one stone and
good luck trying to ever sell or bring another one to the community again.
