Libyan Desert Glass Tektite | 6.53 Grams | Impactite | Authentic | SO24
This is a rare and fantastic 6.53 gram Libyan Desert Glass Tektite from Kuffra, Libya, with dimensions of 31x15x14 mm. Although not a meteorite, tektite is directly linked to their impacts; just consider its age of around 780,000 years old.
Tektite is interesting because of the persistent mystery that has resisted clear explanations of their creation for generations of geologists.
This piece displays extremely well and is a quality translucent specimen. It has an aesthetic shape with a beautiful wind eroded body from the years spent in the Desert. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
