Chemistry and mineral inclusions in the Libyan Desert Glass: preliminary SEM and EMPA investigation
Languages of publication
Abstracts
In this study, fragment of the Libyan Desert Glass was investigated by using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and electron microprobe (EMP). The analyses reveal two differ areas in chemistry. the first one is homogenous in composition, but the second one is slightly enriched in Ti, and Fe content. During SEM and EMP observation, a relict of primary minerals was noted as a cracked zircon crystals.
