Dear List Members,

The long awaited Official Public Offering of NWA 4468 is at hand. It has
been classified as a "Primitive Enriched Olivine Basaltic Shergottite"
meteorite. This is the one that is on the cover of November 2006 Meteorite
Magazine and includes an article I wrote about its recovery. This has got to
be one of the prettiest and freshest Martian meteorites known! I have just
loaded most of what is available on eBay, many with "Buy it Now", under my
seller name, NaturesVault.

Even if you are not in the market for one of these special specimens, the
