THE VOICE OF RUSSIA:
Chelyabinsk meteorite fragment weighing almost 600 kg lifted from Lake Chebarkul


...

A giant fragment of the Chelyabinsk meteorite was lifted from the bottom of Lake Chebarkul near the city of Chelyabinsk in the Russian Urals Mountains on Wednesday. The fragment weighing about 570 kg proved so heavy that even the weighing machine broke, making it impossible to measure the exact weight.
