What is metorite made of?

Answer 1

A tektite is a piece of natural glass, or a piece of magma of any composition that cooled very rapidly. A tektite will closely resemble obsidian. Obsidian is a natural glass of volcanic origins. Tektites can be found in three forms. Layered pieces are often large angular blocks weighing as much as ten kilograms or more. Splashform tektites can weigh up to one kilogram and are often assume the shapes of rods, dumbells, teardrops, and patties as well as reduced fragments of these shapes. Microtektites are smaller than one millimeter and they assume similar shapes to splashform specimens. Tektites are a form of natural glass; because glass is amorphous no crystal forms are present on specimens. The fracture is conchoidal and the fresh break will always glitter and shine. Tektites are all at least a little translucent on a thin edge. The colors range from almost transparent yellow, green, and olive to darker almost opaque shades of blackish green or yellow. Gray and violet are contraindicators and are not considered tektite colors.
