Hi All,
some week ago I went to the home of the finder of many famous DaG meteorite,
like 489 669 670 671 and many more.
In DaG he found this strange volcanic bomb:

As you can see on one side of this bomb there are some strange greenish
crystals.
At a first look this material looks like Libic Desert Glass!!!! Remember
that the DaG is several hundred Km far from the region of the Glass.
I think the crystals are too big to be terrestrial Olivine.
Can the Desert Glass be a normal terrestrial volcanic glass like Oxidian,
not
correlate with meteor impact??? Any idea ??
I hope I can show to you this amazing sample at the Munich Mineral Show.

Bye and thanks
