Indochinite Tektite China, Meteorite Impact Glass, Astronomy Science

 

You will receive ONE Indochinite Tektite stored in an acrylic display case, as pictured.  Most measure roughly 15-20mm (in the event they are slightly smaller, you will receive two).  All were collected in Guangdong Province, China.

Indochinite Tektites are solidified rock, which were fired into the Earth's upper atmosphere by a meteorite impact and subsequently cooled to form the distinctive glass-like structure. Indochinite Tektites are distinctly dark black in contrast to the green of European Moldavite Tektites. It is estimated that these tektites are around 700,000 years old. Indochinite tektites, as the name suggests, are found in the Indochinese peninsula, from Australia and the Pacific islands of Micronesia in the east and south, to China and Indonesia in the north and west.
All our meteorites and tektites are sourced from reliable and reputable dealers.  All specimens are collected legally and all the individuals we deal with are members of the I.M.C.A (International Meteorite Collectors Association).
