6.3 gram full slice with a large CAI.   CV3

TKW 115.1 grams. Fall not observed. Purchased 2019, Erfoud, Morocco.

From the MetBul:
Carbonaceous chondrite composed of well-defined chondrules (mean diameter about 1 mm), CAIs (up to 3 mm), and olivine amoeboids all set into a fine-grained almost black matrix. Type II chondrules are absent. Most chondrules show reddish staining due to terrestrial weathering.
