Mineral: LIBYAN DESERT GLASS
Origin: Libyan Desert

Measurements: 6x4x3 cm
Weight: 65g

Great erheir specimen of Libyan Glass, natural glass formed about 29 million years ago in the Great Sand Sea between Egypt and Libya. Composed almost entirely of very high purity silica, it represents one of the most fascinating impacts known.

Scientific studies indicate that its origin is linked to a very high energy cosmic event, probably associated with the impact or atmospheric explosion of an extraterrestrial body, which instantly melted the desert sands giving rise to this characteristic glass with golden-yellow shades.

Much sought after by collectors of meteorites, impactites and planetary geology, Libyan Glass occupies a unique position in the panorama of impact materials. Even though it is not a meteorite, it retains a close connection with the extraterrestrial processes that have affected the Earth in the geological past.

A sample of notable scientific and collectible interest, ideal for those who appreciate rare natural materials linked to the cosmic history of our planet
