Genuine Natural Tektite + Display Box // 28 g
Product Description
This natural tektite was collected in China. They have irregular elongate natural shapes that taper towards both ends with natural pitted surfaces. They are known as "Indochinites" (sometimes also called "australiasia" tektites), and have been shown by K-Ar radiometric age dating to be approximately 700,000 years old.
Scientists believe that tektites are the result of meteorite impact on Earth. The tektites formed when molten material created by the meteorite's hyper-velocity impact flew through the air and hardened into natural glass with aerodynamic forms and surface features.
