TKW 5.45 kg. Possibly an observed fall 6 November 2021. From the MetBul:
On November 6, 2021, at around 1 pm Saharawi people residing in the refugee camp of Dakhla (about 200 km south of Tindouf, Algeria) heard a strong sonic boom confirmed by many people in the neighboring countries of Mauritania and Western Sahara. A few days later, many meteorite fragments with fresh fusion crust have been recovered by meteorite hunters in northern Mauritania close to the Algerian border (Tindouf province). Mr. Salamu Ali purchased a 446 g fragment and submitted it for classification. Ziyao Wang owns an additional 5 kg.
