805 grams.   Achondrite-ung

TKW 22.86 kg. Fall not observed. Found May 2020, Adrar, Algeria.

From the MetBul:

The stones under classification (combined weight 31.783 kg) lack fusion crust, and have an overall relatively coarse grained, tan and beige appearance with sporadic larger green, yellow-green and less commonly yellow-brown crystals (up to 9 cm by 4 cm in some specimens).
