And that is the fundamental issue with the list ... With some meteorites that were found/fell as one mass, the TKW is more or less accurate. With others that were not found/fell as one mass, the numbers can be WAY off as is the case for Seymchan. The total recovered weight can be much higher than what is reported in the MetBull.
