Hello All,
There is a table on page 592 of Buchwald's trilogy. Vagn Buchwald
wrote that the total weight of the 77 specimens listed in the table
was 21,000 kg. As many more masses have been found to date, we can
assume a TKW of at least 21 tons!

BUCHWALD V.F. (1975) Handbook of Iron Meteorites, Vol. 2, pp. 584-593).
Best wishes,
Bernd
