Well this thread certainly has taken twists and turns that I never expected! I see how my question wasn't fully formed (again) but that was actually a good thing. I wonder if this theme "Where is all the ... ?" might be something that the list can use in the future.

Re: [meteorite-list] Where is all the Murchison???
I got word that a lot of it is being sliced "real' thin... I just think it's one of the most sought after meteorites, so it's hard to find. Also, I'm sure a lot of it is in institutions for study. I remember a few years back I try to find some on the web... very few piece available. I finally got a nice piece (few grams) from Anne Black last year at Tucson. I have to agree - a beautiful specimen; I wish I was filthy rich sometimes.

Re: [meteorite-list] Where is all the Murchison???
If nobody else publicly responds to your call, Richard, may be you better ask some dealers or collectors personally who are somehow known to have had some good pieces of Murch for sale in the past, or in their collection. If they have something to sell, good, else they may talk to you about sources in the more recent past. I can´t give much more advice on that. My personal piece of Murchison is a nice cut crusted individual which I bought from Bob Haag about fifteen or more years ago. May be he is the one who still has some for sale in the weight ranges needed? I really don´t know - but: good luck! Some of the list folks here may also make other suggestions or offers...??? Would be glad to read more about this.

Re: [meteorite-list] Where is all the Murchison???
Hi Richard and List, HOLY CARBOS BATMAN! That is a whopper of a Murchison! If someone wants to buy that for me for my birthday, I will buy that person a beer and a cigar. ;) To answer your question - I don't know. The majority of Murchison that I see is broken fragments that are less than 50g and tiny crumbs in the <1g range. I rarely see individuals, and if I saw a complete crusted pea of 1-2g, I would pounce on it and my cabinet would grow by one.
