What Are Indochinite Tektites?

Indochinite Tektites are natural glass formations created 790,000 years ago when a massive meteorite struck Earth in the South China Sea region. These aren't ordinary rocksthey're solidified remnants of terrestrial material that was instantly melted, launched skyward, and rapidly cooled during the catastrophic impact.

These cosmic specimens display unique aerodynamic shapes sculpted by their fiery flight through the atmosphere, with distinctive surface textures and translucent to opaque black or dark green coloration that can only be formed under extreme impact conditions.

Where They're Found

Indochinite Tektites are discovered across Southeast Asia's vast strewn field, including Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and Southern China. This extensive distribution tells the story of an impact so powerful it scattered molten material across thousands of square kilometers.

Formation Story

When the meteorite struck, it generated temperatures exceeding 2,000°C and extreme pressures. In milliseconds, local bedrock was vaporized, melted, and ejected high into the atmosphere. As these molten droplets arced through space, they cooled and solidified into the distinctive teardrop and button-like shapes we see today, preserving a perfect snapshot of that cosmic collision.
