Pete,
?
I would guess low cause it seems that SNC meteorites tend to be low in weight, but again its an NWA and it seems more and more always shows up some how.

the sidelines and watching from afar. There are plenty of dealers willing to
part with some right now for those who like to be among the first to own some. I
may decide to get involved if the price stabilizes before the Tucson show where
I fully expect to see a huge amount of it. The marketing posturing seems subdued
or at least delegated to the background for now. Perhaps it will explode onto
the market by the time the Tucson show rolls around.

I can add a giant piece of "Tata (b)" or whatever they may name it to my
collection for a reasonable price.
