Maskelynite is found embedded as inclusions in this impactite glass from the Tenoumer Impact Crater, Mauritania, Africa. White to tan glass particles are embedded in this glassy shocked greenish-grey granitic impactite. Maskelynite does not have an orderly arrangement of atoms and therefore is considered to be more along the line of a volcanic glass.
Size: 19mm L X 19mm W X 6mm
Ships in a protective box, in the round gem case (shown), with Certificate of Authenticity, tag and tag stand. Plexiglass base and photo cube not included.
Maskelynite would make a great addition to any serious impacts collection. Very rare material.
