Footnote
Vulcan (Alberta, Canada) H6 (stone) - found April 1962
Only one stone weighing 19kg was ever found of this Canadian meteorite.
Canada restricts exports of its meteorites and as a direct result, Canadian falls and finds become very hard to add to private collections.
Provenance: Natural History Museum, London
