Description of the MN tektite fragments
The MN tektite fragments found at the HO06 section are black in color, vesicular, and show submillimeter-scale layering. Under an optical microscope, thin sections of the fragments show layering composed of the dark-brownish–colored and light greenish-colored glass stripes, which are parallel to each other. Each stripe has 10-μm scale subparallel lamination characterized by alternation of dark-brownish and pale greenish lenses. Elongated vesicles of submillimeter size, the long axes of which are roughly parallel to the layering, are occasionally observed. Mineral inclusions which are several micrometers in diameter are sparsely contained, but they are too small to identify mineral species under an optical microscope. These characteristics are typical for MN Australasian tektites found in Indochina (e.g., Wasson 1991; Glass et al. 2020).
