Natural Libyan Desert Glass Meteorite,Golden Yellow Tektite from Libya,Rare Libyan Desert Glass Stone,Specimen,Collection,Astronomical gift size: 5.6cm*3.6cm weight: 75g Libyan Desert Glass is an Impact Glass – Found Libyan/Egyptian border – 26 to 29 myo. Created from a meteorite impact in the Libyan desert. Due to it’s age the originating crater is no longer visible due to erosion. Found in varying sizes from milligrams to pieces weighing many tens of kilograms. Libyan Desert Glass (LDG) is highly collectable and is often used in jewellery making. LDG has also been used by ancient man to make tools by flaking off bits of broken glass with sharp edges for cutting. A piece of LDG was also carved into a Scarab beetle and used in Tutankhamun’s breast plate. Some early expeditions to the find area reported up to 10% of all LDG finds showed signs of being altered by ancientman. A beautiful material that is still highly in demand today. Libyan Desert glass, or Great Sand Sea glass is an impactite found in areas in the eastern Sahara, in the deserts of eastern Libya and western Egypt. Fragments of desert glass can be found over areas of tens of square kilometers. Studies show the Libyan desert glass formed about 29 million years ago. The glass is nearly pure silica, which requires temperatures above 1,600℃ to form, and that is hotter than any igneous rock on Earth.Few mineral relics survived from whatever caused the melting. Within the glass are rare occurrences of high-temperature minerals, including a form of quartz called cristobalite.Those are the tiny white dots you see in some pieces. There are also grains of the mineral zircon,although most have reacted to form a higher-temperature mineral called zirconia. Libyan glass (LDG) is a rare mostly yellow-colored tektite / impactite,called also impact glass.It is found in only one place in the world in the desert near the borders of Libya and Egypt. For this reason, it is also called Libyan desert glass.The origin is not yet completely known. but it is assumed that it was created when an asteroid or comet hit the earth’s surface approximately in the Tertiary period about 28 million years ago. However, the place of impact has not yet been found and the theory of its origin is therefore uncertain. It is the purest glass on earth, it contains about 98 % of silicate and shock minerals formed during impact. The melting point of LDG is higher than that of ordinary glass, i.e. 1700 degrees Celsius. Libyan Desert Glass is brilliant yellow, symbolizing abundance,clarity,and life.The Solar Plexus Chakra,related to power, confidence,and manifestation, is yellow.Libyan Desert Glass absorbs this energy,giving self-confidence,wish manifestation,and empowerment. Libyan Desert Glass is a rare tektite found in the Sahara Desert,on the border between Libya and Egypt. While it is always yellow, this gem is has a slight hint of green when found in Egypt,and is a purer yellow when found in Libya. Tekites are a type of natural glass that is created when a meteorite strikes the earth. The sudden heat and pressure of the strike, instantly melts the impact zone and sends molten silica clouds into the air. As the silica re-hardens, it falls back to the earth as Tektites. Libyan Desert Glass was prized in Ancient Egypt and is associated with solar gods and goddesses. It is an incredible stone for self-actualization and healing. Similar to moldavite and other tektites, Libyan Desert Glass is a natural glass formation of debated origin. The most accepted theory is that LDG came to be because of a meteorite impact on our planet. All of the heat and pressure of the impact instantly melted the surrounding sand and soil and launched it into the air where it cooled and again fell, as a natural glass specimen. Bits of surrounding sand can often been seen in Libyan Desert Glass, this piece included. Another theory is that LDG is volcanic glass, similar to obsidian. Occasionally quartz-based orb inclusions called Cristobalite can be found in LDG that support a more “earthly origin”. Regardless, LDG is often a very light yellow and mostly transparent. They were used to fashion tools, arrowheads, and used in jewelry by the indigenous people who originally discovered the material and we still use them in many of the same ways today! Totally awesome stuff.
