I originally used the Blue Book-4th edition Catalogue of Meteorites as the source of all the information I had for the listed meteorites in the front of our book Meteorites from A to Z. It was the most current at the time. Unfortunately it did not list a weight. I was able to find a weight in the Catalog of Meteorites in the Collection ASU of 400 grams and did include it as well as a reference. Today I did look up one of the references listed by Grady Catalogue of Meteorites 5th ed. The reference is from Contributions of the Meteoritical Society Vol. 4, No 1, 1947 Leonard "A Catalog of the Meteorite Falls of the Eleven Western States" p. 60. The weight listed in there is 850 grams. The reference also lists that the mass is in the Pomona Collection. You also might want to check out Bob V's page about the recently recovered Rosamond Dry Lake stone that weighs 875 grams. So the new TKW is 1725 grams. <A HREF="http://meteorite-recovery.tripod.com/rosamond/rozmond1.htm"> Bolide*chaser | Rosamond Dry Lake Trip - 2003 January 19</A> BTW I have been working on updating the book. There will be several changes and corrections as well as including all the newly recognized meteorites since the last edition. If you have any corrections, additions, changes or other items you would like to see addressed please send the non Sahara stuff to me or the Sahara to my brother Bill at meteorchsr_at_aol.com. Can't promise we will include it in the book but we will certainly try to add all verifiable information that is sent in. So please include some references where possible.
