    Description

    Hello, here is a very nice 100% Natural and complete Libyan Desert Glass or Great Sand Sea Glass Impactite that was found many years ago in Egypt! It is has a semi translucent clarity with a light yellow color and regmaglypt like shapes!
    Here's More Information long but interesting...The origin of the glass is a controversial issue for the scientific community, with many evolving theories. Meteoritic origins for the glass were long suspected, and recent research linked the glass to impact features, such as zircon-breakdown, vaporized quartz and meteoritic metals, and to an impact crater. Some geologists associate the glass not with impact melt ejecta, but with melting from meteoric large aerial bursts! The Libyan desert glass has been dated as having formed about 26 million years ago! It was also knapped and used to make tools during the Pleistocene Era.
    This piece measures around 3.85cm or 1 9/16" at its biggest or from opposing side to side!
