Hi Pat, the Bulletin Database has as tkw for Allende of 2 metric tons = 2000kg. (And some say 3 tons). It felt at a time, where naturally there weren't such myopic laws like today and there were less collectors than today. And it felt in a country with good accessibility. To make it short:

Hiya Every meteorite which is sold at an inexplicably low price is the result of a particular event, and the contamination that results from such events can take years or decades to be corrected. The situation between Millbillillie and Allende is not really similar, and the story

Point well taken, Darren, but there are OCs with exceedingly large TKWs which are comparably priced. This is just one-of-those aberrations that I imagine will soon be adjusted; I believe it's inevitable. On Feb 15, 2009, at 1:32 PM, Darren Garrison wrote: On Sun, 15 Feb 2009 13:25:17

Hi Pat, I believe that Allende continues to be the most studied meteorite for reasons that are intrinsic to Allende. Also, far more Allende was recovered than initially reported: there is easily more than an order of magnitude more Allende than Murchison. /dp On Feb 15, 2009, at

This does look like a fireball. Its intensity profile and lack of terminal explosion makes me think it was fairly high altitude. Since it disappears over the horizon, I'd estimate that it stopped burning several hundred miles away, probably near Lake Ontario. I doubt it produced meteorites.
