577 gram full slice.   Iron, IIIE

TKW 45.9 kg. Fall not observed. Found 2000, Semipalatinsk, Kazakhstan.

From the MetBul
A large iron meteorite was found in prairie by a horse rider in 2000, ~12 km south of Ayagoz. A 38.9 kg piece and a 7 kg piece were brought to two different dealers by Jevgenijs Suhanovs in Ayagoz city. Samples from both pieces were analyzed to confirm they came from the same meteorite.
