Great looking little slice but I didn’t find much history on its discovery! Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, in 2015 I was in the area taking pics of trees that had been hit by lightning with a gent that has lived in the area all of his life. He said that his father told him that there had been a large bushfire that went through the forest in 1944 so I guess that during the clean up, after the fire that the meteorite must have been found. The country is scrub on soft sands. Regards Bruce brucedonnelly@me.com

Yes, info is difficult on this one. Appears it was purchased from the Kurtze museum during WW2. Good luck Graham.
