@ Dr. Mike Reynolds; it was just a very flat tektite that I grinded and polished by hand. Its very tricky, because tektites have much stress in the rapid cooled glass. So its not possible to glue them by heat on a plate and cut it with machines. This way one of my biggest tektites "exploded".
@ Colonel Pulaerko; the fine scale is in 1/10mm*s. The numbers are the mm*s |

Very interesting pictures. What are the units of the scale? |

As a part of my crater and impactite research, I always like a nice sample. Where was this recovered, Michael? |
