[meteorite-list] Question about NWA 869

[James Baxter]

Hi Melanie,

I was lucky enough to get a dinner plate sized 895 gram slice of NWA 869 from Blaine Reed back in 2008. I asked him and the mass he cut to produce it weighed 84 pounds, just short of 40kg. Not sure if anyone out there knows of a larger one. The Metoritical Bulletin just says individual masses to >20kg.

Best,
Jim Baxter
