Hello Anne and Siegfried,

I had heard about these arrests earlier. Lets hope for their speedy return
to their families and homes. This is a very sad situation. It was almost one
year ago we flew to Cairo to try and get visa's to enter Sudan and hunt for
Almahata Sitta stones. Maybe it was a blessing that some of us Western
countries are not allowed entry visa's due to political problems.

I wish the three safe captivity and for a speedy and welcome return home!

Best regards,
Greg

> In this connection several meteorite collectors asked me about the status

> Therefore, I want to let you know that all of the Almahata Sitta
> meteorites
> I have and offer for sale were exported with an official export license.
> Who wants to see this license can have a look at it in Anne Black's show
> room in Tucson (IMPACTIKA, Hotel Tucson City Center, Room 230).

> With best collector's regards
