when NWA material is counted, many are paired and have same finds with many numbers.
That will make things tough when doing sub classes.

Bondoc might be the largest mesosiderite. Are we going to fill out the list for L6, L5. L4, L3.9, L3.8 etc?

List:

Looks like NWA 4882 is the largest Brachinite at 2.89 kg.
Also, perhaps the largest stone of Winona could be the largest Winonite - but I do not know that.

Interesting query?
