> Dear list,
>
> I was thinking about this important meteorite ( which gave the name to the 
> Pallasite clan after Pallas claimed it had a cosmic origin, in 1772 if my 
> memory is exact. The mass itself having been dicovered in 1749 in Russia ) 
> .
> It has a TKW of 700 kg according Catalogue of Meteorites and about 525 kg 
> are in Museum collections, including 515 kg in Acad Sci Moscow. ( still ?)
> I was wandering if much of it is in privates hands as 175 kg are missing !
> Any info about it is welcome.
> Best regards.
