Tektite nuggets, large, 20-45mm. (Natural) Pkg of 3.

A rare find, these stones are gathered in remote areas in outer Mongolia. These are irregular shapes, very smooth and lustrous.

Fascinating and captivating, tektites are pieces of glass formed when large meteorite impacts the Earth's surface. Small, pitted, and typically pbelle-like, tektites are green-black high quality glass. Impact rocks and glasses are an interesting addition to any collection.

Tektite
Tektites (from Greek tektos, molten) are natural glass objects, up to a few centimeters in size, which — according to most scientists — have been formed by the impact of large meteorites on Earth's surface. Tektites are among the "driest" rocks, with an average water content of 0.005%. This is very unusual, as most if not all of the craters where tektites may have formed were underwater before impact. Also, partially melted zircons have been discovered inside a handful of tektites. This, along with the water content, suggests that the tektites were formed under phenomenal temperature and pressure.
