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.
