Darwin Glass/Darwinite 8.26g
Origin: Darwin Crater, Western Tasmania, Australia
Size: 46 x 17 x15 mm
State: Intact, no damage
Darwin Glass formed around 816000 years ago when a meteorite hit western Tasmania near Mount Darwin. The impact generated enough heat to melt the surface rock and launch it into the air. As the molten material cooled mid flight, it solidified into natural glass and settled across the region.
