Rizalite Philippinite Tektite | 196.3 Grams | Rare Impactite | Philippines
$355.00 CAD
Unit price per1 low in stock
This is a large 196.3 gram uniquely shaped Rizalite Tektite, with a beautiful pitted body, from Rizal Province, Philippines. Although not a meteorite, tektite is directly linked to them or their impacts, just consider its age of around 710,000 years old.
Rizalites are a variety of Philippinite tektites belonging to the Indochinite strewnfield. Like other splash-form tektites from around the world, they appear in a wide range of shapes. What sets them apart is their striking surface texture—often finer, more delicate, and accompanied by a brighter sheen. Many specimens display a smoother overall appearance, yet this elegance is frequently contrasted by dramatic deep grooves and winding channels etched into their surfaces.
Tektite is very interesting because of the persistent mystery that resisted clear explanations of their creation for generations of geologists. This piece displays very well and is a very nice size showing multiple characteristics of its origin.
This special piece comes with 2 specimen cards including the signed original Mark Bostick Collection. Would make a beautiful addition to any collection.
