Tektite – formed after the collision of the Earth and a meteorite

Tektite is a mineral belonging to the group of meteorites and has different colors and shapes. Its distinctive feature is small inclusions in the form of bubbles. The stone is found in different places on the planet, which has become the reason for calling it by different names.

Due to its origin, products made from this gem are popular among collectors. Tektite charged with cosmic energy can have a special magical and healing effect on a person, the main thing is to choose the right type according to the zodiac sign.

Story. Mythology

In addition to the official name, these molten frozen glassy formations have others, for example:

• bottle stones;
• fake peridots;
• Darwin or desert glass.

The term "tektite" comes from Greek and means "molten" or "molten".

Tektites are a group of stones that are fragments of earth rocks or meteorites. Few of them are used as gemstones.

Archaeologists sometimes find green specimens that resemble modern bottle glass at Stone Age sites. Probably these round, translucent stones served as toys for children.

Studies of the tektite belt, which stretches in a circle across the entire globe, allow us to conclude that it was formed during the global flood of 9612 BC. e. The Ogyges Flood is the most powerful in the history of our planet. The reason for its occurrence is the collision of the Earth with the tail of the “retribution comet” (Phaethon). Scientists note that this tektite belt strikingly coincides with the ethnographic belt of the spread of legends and myths about the global flood.

In many myths and legends, the tektite belt is identified with the serpent that encircled the Earth; the natives of the New World considered it a fiery serpent that fell to the Earth.

That is, legends and myths indicate that the tektite belt was formed as a result of a cosmic catastrophe - the collision of many fragments of a comet with our planet.

Origin

Experts have not yet come to a consensus on the origin of these minerals. There are two hypotheses for their formation:

• Meteorite (comet) suggests that tektites are particles of the nucleus of a comet that passed through a layer of the atmosphere (or collapsed on the approaches to the Earth) and left a trace in the form of a tektite belt of its fragments.

The second version of this version: tektites are pieces of meteorites that crashed into the earth's surface.

The following facts support the cosmic origin of these minerals:

• At the end of the twentieth century, the first tektite rain in the history of science fell in the Nizhny Novgorod region;
• Discovery in the Krasnoyarsk Territory, east of the city of Kansk, of a scattering of tektites-kanskites that fell from the orbital companion of the Tunguska meteorite;
• In the Kaluga region in 2012, tektites-rotvanites were discovered in the scattering field of the Borovsky comet meteorite.
• “Age paradox”, which consists in the fact that the age of tektites sometimes significantly exceeds the age of the horizon of their occurrence.

• The impact hypothesis assumes that when a large cosmic body collides with the Earth, a molten mixture of cosmic and terrestrial matter is ejected from the resulting crater in a directed swarm, flies along an overhead trajectory and falls out in a place remote from the explosion (for example, in the Czech Republic).

If the meteorite is small, then tektites can be found in the meteorite crater. This is most likely terrestrial rock material that was melted due to the impact.

It is possible that some tektites were formed from ordinary rocks due to a lightning strike.

Many experts believe that both hypotheses have a right to life and that the formation of tektites was facilitated by high energies, which greatly heated them and cooled them almost instantly. People find both space and terrestrial samples of this stone, and space ones are less common.

Meteor shower or what is tektite?

The name tektite stone comes from the Greek tektos, which means molten. Other names for the mineral and its varieties: bottle stone, Darwin glass, desert glass, false peridot, australite, moldavite, indomalazinite, bediasite, impactite, agni-mani.

Tektites are molten and frozen glassy formations resulting from the impact of meteorites on the solid surface of our planet. Sometimes they are incorrectly called meteorites, but this is not entirely correct. Most often, tektites are not fragments of the meteorites themselves, but pieces of rocks of terrestrial origin, melted as a result of a meteorite impact on the earth. Tektites consist mainly of silicon dioxide (68-82%). In appearance and properties they are slightly reminiscent of obsidian, but differ from it in chemical composition. The possible presence of tektites is indicated by young craters formed as a result of meteorite falls.

In terms of chemical composition, tektites are close to terrestrial igneous sedimentary rocks with a high silica content of 68-82%. Their most distinguishing feature is their extremely low water content - 0.0005-0.001% (bottle glass contains 0.02%). According to this parameter, tektites have no analogues among terrestrial stones, meteorites and impactites. Even nuclear impactites (glasses formed during underground nuclear explosions) have a higher water content and contain mineral inclusions. Numerous studies have established that tektites were formed as a result of high-energy pulsed heating (>>2000K) and subsequent rapid cooling. Some tektites bear obvious traces of exposure to high-speed gas flows. The ages of tektites, by geological standards, are small - from 0.6 to 35 million years.

Tektites are very diverse in shape: fragments, flanged buttons, dumbbells, boats, tears, hollow thin-walled balls, cores, disks and plates, arrows, pear-shaped, beans and trilobites. Some specimens have complex sculptures, as if their surfaces had been eaten away by snails. The mass of tektite samples is usually a few tens of grams, but can vary in a wide range from 0.065 g to 1 kg, the absolute maximum is 3.2 kg.

Tektites can be very similar to porous black rocks of volcanic origin, but unlike them they have a higher density and are noticeably heavier than light porous volcanic rocks. Tektites are more expensive.

Place of Birth. Tektite deposits are found in Tasmania, Australia, Indonesia, Indochina, on the island. Java, Malaya, West Africa, USA, Czech Republic and Philippines.

Due to the fact that tektites are well processed and polished, they are used in jewelry.

Tektites, due to their cosmic origin, stimulate the body's energy, aura, eliminate fatigue, headaches and, more than other stones, are a suitable means for a mood of concentration and reflection. Therefore, they are often used in traditional East Asian medicine and magic.

Medicinal properties In folk medicine, tektite is used as a remedy that can reduce the negative consequences of stressful situations. It is believed that products and amulets made from this mineral help treat colds, have a beneficial effect on metabolic processes, reduce kidney energy, and increase blood pressure.

Tektite affects the crown and sacral chakras.

Magic properties

Tektites attracted the attention of our distant ancestors. In the Danube region, at one of the sites of Stone Age people (25,000 years ago), tektites were found, apparently used by primitive people in their primitive economy. Stone Age people felt the unusualness of tektites and endowed them with power, using them as attributes of mysticism and magic, usually for healing and causing rain, in funeral and witchcraft rituals.

Tektite is used by magicians to travel back in time. This stone is considered to be an alien from outer space, carrying within itself the powers of the universe. In Australia, the aborigines revered tektite, calling it a talisman from the sky. Modern magicians use the unusual properties of tektite to enter the astral plane. It is believed that with the help of this stone you can change karma, avoid many mistakes, and better understand the world around you.

In modern magic, tektites are used as a remedy for the evil eye and damage.

Tektite patronizes people born under the signs of Aries and Cancer. He helps Aries to find themselves by correcting the mistakes of the past. Cancer brings good luck in creative activities.

Talismans and amulets Tektit is a talisman of scientists, practicing magicians and mediums. Products made from tektite, as well as unprocessed stones, contribute to the acquisition of new knowledge and knowledge of the unknown.

Tektite amulets are recommended to be worn by emotionally unbalanced people.

Interesting about tektite. Tektites are studied by specialists in many countries, however, they still remain “the most hopelessly mysterious of all the stones ever found on Earth.” Of the many mysteries of tektites, the most important is where they were formed: in space or on Earth? There has been a heated debate on this topic among scientists for almost 200 years. The most widespread is the terrestrial impact hypothesis of the origin of tektites - they are frozen drops of melt formed as a result of the fall of comets and asteroids to the Earth. The strongest argument in favor of the extraterrestrial nature of tektites is the age paradox of tektites (the age of tektites in some scattering fields is much older than the horizon of their occurrence) and the possibility of explaining many features of the structure of tektite scattering fields by atmospheric explosions of small cometary nuclei or their fragments.

However, there is serious reason to believe that the matter is moving towards a denouement: the fall of the Nizhny Novgorod tektites should put a final point in this dispute in favor of the cosmic origin of all tektites found on Earth. And this, in turn, will mean that by taking tektite in your hand, you have touched a fragment of a comet.

Description

Externally, tektite is slightly reminiscent of obsidian, but their chemical composition is different.
Characteristics of the appearance of tektites:

• Any shape, without edges and corners (some samples look like plates, boats, plates, cores, dumbbells, etc.).
• The surface is embossed.
• Dimensions range from tiny millimeter-sized balls to pieces the size of a chicken egg.
• Color - green, black, brown, yellowish-olive.
• Transparency - from zero to almost complete.

Inclusions in the form of gas bubbles are often observed.

Physicochemical characteristics

Tektite is a silicate of sedimentary origin. The main component in its composition is silicon dioxide (up to 82%) . The uniqueness of tektites, especially cosmic ones, is that they contain very little water - from 0.0005 to 0.001% .

The microcavities of the mineral are filled with a mixture of hydrogen, carbon dioxide, methane and rare gases. An exception is Libyan glass , which is found in the Libyan Desert and is almost pure siliceous glass with a small amount of water.

The composition of Darwin glass is also different from that of most tektites. It contains silica 86–90% and alumina 6–8% .

Nizhny Novgorod tektites contain high contents of Ba, Na, and Mn. Kanskites also have a high Na content . Protvanites have a high percentage of Ca.

The weight of tektites ranges from hundredths of a gram to 1 kg , but a stone weighing 3.2 kg .

The age of tektites ranges from several tens of thousands of years (Nizhny Novgorod tektites) to 36 million years (bediasites). Interestingly, the meteor shower occurred in the Nizhny Novgorod region only a few decades ago. Radiometric dating was not carried out among the Kanskites and Protvanites.

Deposits and varieties

Tektites are found in different parts of the world. Their varieties differ in location and have corresponding names. The most famous types:

• Australit (Australia) - very light “balls” or “droplets” of ancient “glass rain”.
• Bediasite (USA, Texas) - black.
• Ivorit (Ivory Coast).
• Indoshinite (Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, South China).
• Irgizite, Zhamanshinite (Kazakhstan) - they cover the Zhamanshin crater with an area of ​​7 km . Black ones are more common, and green ones are much less common.

Irghizites (Zhamanshinites)

• Kanskit (Russia, near the city of Kansk) - contains a lot of sodium.
• Queenstownite (Western Tasmania, near Queenstown) - better known as Darwin glass .
• Libyan glass ( "desert glass" ) (Libya, Egypt) - transparent stones, similar in composition to rock crystal.
• Moldavite or vltavin (Czech Republic) are “bottle stones” of green color.

Moldavite

• Nizhny Novgorod tektite (Russia) - stones with a high content of barium, manganese, sodium.
• Protvanite (Russia, bank of the Protva River) is opaque and contains a lot of calcium.
• Filipinite (Philippines).
• Yawanit (Java Island).

Tektite deposits have not yet been found in Antarctica, but it is a matter of time.

Mining locations

To date, scientists have discovered more than one deposit of tektite rocks. The most famous locations of the stones are scattered around the globe. Tektite deposits include the countries of Oceania: Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, the islands of Java and Tasmania; as well as the Czech Republic, Asian Indochina, America and West African countries. Recent craters caused by meteorite impacts may indicate the possible presence of tektites in the area.

In Kazakhstan there is an entire tektite field, which includes a huge crater with a circumference of about 7 kilometers. This is a kind of unique natural monument of Kazakhstan, located in the Zhamanshin tract.

Application

Tektite is in demand among jewelers and collectors.

Jewelry

These stones lend themselves well to cutting and polishing, so jewelry with them looks very beautiful.

Jewelers make inserts of rings, rings, pendants, bracelets, brooches, and earrings from yellowish Libyan glass and green moldavite. In this case, the stones are cut with a faceted edge. Cabochons and beads for designer jewelry are made from opaque (for example, protvanite), dark, unevenly colored with tarnished colors.

Tektites are also used to make amulets and talismans.

Collecting

Collectors highly value this mineral for its amazing shapes. Many people set their goal to collect all types of tektite, as well as to obtain tektite extracted from a kimberlite pipe and a large meteorite for the collection. Collecting these stones with mysterious origins can become the main life pursuit of a person who is passionate about mineralogy.

Medicinal properties

Lithotherapists are confident that the main significance of tektite for humans is maintaining mental balance during stress, mental and physical strain.

To activate your energy potential and overcome fatigue, you just need to hold this pebble in your hands.

Wearing tektite promotes:

• Improvement and strengthening of the nervous system.
• Getting rid of various fears and depression.
• Clearing your mind.
• Restoring proper sleep.

Translucent tektites are very helpful during meditation; in addition, with their help it is easier to concentrate on solving intellectual problems.

It is important to remember that treatment of diseases is unacceptable only with the help of stones. It is necessary to use lithotherapy as an addition to the treatment prescribed by the doctor.

Lithotherapists note the following healing properties of tektite:

• Improves metabolism in the body.
• Normalizes blood circulation, resulting in increased vital energy.
• Reduces joint and headache pain.
• Promotes the treatment and prevention of eye diseases.
• Helps cure colds.
• Provides assistance in the treatment of the genitourinary system.

In order for the healing properties to fully manifest themselves, tactile contact with the stone is needed. But not excessively, otherwise congestion may occur in the gallbladder. After recovery, you should part with the stone for a while so that it can “rest.”

Excerpt characterizing Tektite

Lord our God, we believe in Him and we trust in Him, do not disgrace us from the hope of your mercy and create a sign for good, so that those who hate us and our Orthodox faith will see, and be disgraced and perish; and let all countries know that your name is the Lord, and we are your people. Show us, Lord, now give us your mercy and your salvation; make the hearts of your servants glad because of your mercy; defeat our enemies, and crush them quickly under the feet of your faithful. For you are intercession, help and victory for those who trust in you, and we send glory to you, father and son and holy spirit, now and ever, and forever and ever. Amen". In the state of spiritual openness in which Natasha was, this prayer had a strong effect on her. She listened to every word about the victory of Moses against Amalek, and Gideon against Midian, and David against Goliath, and about the destruction of your Jerusalem, and asked God with that tenderness and softness with which her heart was filled; but she did not understand well what she was asking God for in this prayer. She participated with all her soul in asking for a right spirit, for the strengthening of the heart with faith, hope and for the inspiration of their love. But she could not pray to trample underfoot her enemies, when a few minutes before that she only wished to have more of them, to love them, to pray for them. But she also could not doubt the correctness of the kneeling prayer read. She felt in her soul a reverent and trembling horror of the punishment that befell people for their sins, and especially for her sins, and asked God to forgive them all and her and give them all and her peace and happiness in life . And it seemed to her that God heard her prayer. From the day when Pierre, leaving the Rostovs and remembering Natasha’s grateful look, looked at the comet standing in the sky and felt that something new had opened up for him, the question that had always tormented him about the futility and madness of everything earthly ceased to appear to him. This terrible question: why? for what? - which had previously presented itself to him in the middle of every lesson, was now replaced for him not by another question and not by an answer to the previous question, but by a presentation of her. Whether he heard or carried on insignificant conversations, whether he read or learned about the meanness and senselessness of people, he was not horrified as before; did not ask himself why people were fussing when everything was so brief and unknown, but he remembered her in the form in which he had seen her for the last time, and all his doubts disappeared, not because she answered the questions that presented themselves to him , but because the idea of ​​her instantly transported him to another, bright area of ​​mental activity, in which there could be no right or wrong, to the area of ​​beauty and love, for which it was worth living. No matter what everyday abomination seemed to him, he said to himself: “Well, let such and such rob the state and the tsar, and the state and the tsar give him honors; and yesterday she smiled at me and asked me to come, and I love her, and no one will ever know this,” he thought. Pierre still went out into society, drank just as much and led the same idle and distracted life, because, in addition to those hours that he spent with the Rostovs, he had to spend the rest of his time, and the habits and acquaintances he had made in Moscow , irresistibly attracted him to the life that captured him. But recently, when more and more alarming rumors came from the theater of war and when Natasha’s health began to improve and she ceased to arouse in him the former feeling of thrifty pity, he began to be overcome by a more and more incomprehensible anxiety. He felt that the situation in which he found himself could not last long, that a catastrophe was coming that would change his whole life, and he impatiently looked for signs of this approaching catastrophe in everything. Pierre was revealed by one of the Freemason brothers the following prophecy regarding Napoleon, derived from the Apocalypse of John the Theologian. In the Apocalypse, chapter thirteen, verse eighteen, it is said: “Here is wisdom; Let those who have intelligence respect the number of animals: the number is human, and its number is six hundred and sixty-six.” And of the same chapter in verse five: “And a mouth was given unto him, saying great things and blasphemous things; and he was given the domain of creation for a month of four to ten and two.” French letters, like the Hebrew number image, according to which the first ten letters stand for units, and the rest tens, have the following meaning: abcdefghi k.. l..m..n..o..p..q..r..s ..t.. u…v w.. x.. y.. z 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150 160 Using this alphabet, write the words L in numbers 'empereur Napoleon [Emperor Napoleon], it turns out that the sum of these numbers is equal to 666 and that therefore Napoleon is the beast that was predicted in the Apocalypse. In addition, having written the words quarante deux [forty-two] using the same alphabet, that is, the limit that was set for the beast to say great and blasphemous, the sum of these numbers depicting quarante deux is again equal to 666 ti, from which it follows that the limit of Napoleon’s power came in 1812, in which the French Emperor turned 42 years old. This prediction greatly amazed Pierre, and he often asked himself the question of what exactly would put a limit to the power of the beast, that is, Napoleon, and, based on the same images of words with numbers and calculations, he tried to find the answer to the question that occupied him. Pierre wrote in response to this question: L'empereur Alexandre? La nation Russe? [Emperor Alexander? Russian people?] He counted the letters, but the sum of the numbers came out much more or less than 666. Once, while doing these calculations, he wrote his name - Comte Pierre Besouhoff; The sum of the numbers also did not come out far. He changed the spelling, putting z instead of s, added de, added article le, and still did not get the desired result. Then it occurred to him that if the answer to the question he was looking for lay in his name, then the answer would certainly include his nationality. He wrote Le Russe Besuhoff and, counting the numbers, he got 671. Only 5 were extra; 5 means "e", the same "e" that was dropped in the article before the word L'empereur. Having thrown out the “e” in exactly the same way, although incorrectly, Pierre received the desired answer; L'Russe Besuhof, equal to 666 ti. This discovery excited him. How, by what connection he was connected with that great event that was predicted in the Apocalypse, he did not know; but he did not doubt this connection for a minute. His love for Rostova, the Antichrist, the invasion of Napoleon, comet 666, l'empereur Napoleon and l'Russe Besuhof - all this together was supposed to ripen, burst out and lead him out of that enchanted, insignificant world of Moscow habits in which he felt himself captive, and lead him to great feats and great happiness. Pierre, on the eve of that Sunday on which the prayer was read, promised the Rostovs to bring them from Count Rostopchin, with whom he was well acquainted, both an appeal to Russia and the latest news from the army. In the morning, having stopped by Count Rastopchin, Pierre found him having just arrived a courier from the army. The courier was one of the Moscow ballroom dancers Pierre knew. - For God's sake, can you make it easier for me? - said the courier, - my bag is full of letters to my parents. Among these letters was a letter from Nikolai Rostov to his father. Pierre took this letter. In addition, Count Rastopchin gave Pierre the sovereign’s appeal to Moscow, just printed, the latest orders for the army and his latest poster. Having looked through the orders for the army, Pierre found in one of them, between the news of the wounded, killed and awarded, the name of Nikolai Rostov, who was awarded the 4th degree by George for his bravery in the Ostrovnensky case, and in the same order the appointment of Prince Andrei Bolkonsky as commander of the Jaeger regiment. Although he did not want to remind the Rostovs about Bolkonsky, Pierre could not resist the desire to please them with the news of his son’s award and, leaving with him the appeal, poster and other orders, in order to bring them to dinner himself, he sent a printed order and a letter to Rostov.

Magic properties

In ancient times, people paid attention to the magic of mysterious stones that fell from the sky. In Ancient Egypt they were used in rituals. In Tibet, the gem helped initiates open portals to other worlds. Australians called tektite a “heavenly talisman” and believed that it helped to travel to the astral worlds and establish contact with the past.

And today in magical circles this special stone is of great importance. It is considered a source and conductor of the energy of the Cosmos for humans, and the list of magical properties of tektite has expanded:

• Establishes a balance of inner harmony during changes in life.
• It is a powerful amulet that neutralizes negative influences from the outside.
• Contributes to the awakening of talents, helps to find your purpose in life.
• Helps in spiritual improvement, gives wisdom.
• Protects against rash actions.
• Black tektite can activate superpowers.
• You can have a prophetic dream if you put a black stone under your pillow.

The magical properties of tektite manifest themselves to a greater extent if contact with a person is quite long (but with interruptions) and if the owner believes in the power of this stone.

Who is suitable according to their zodiac sign?

Tektite affects the zodiac signs in different ways. Astrologers do not advise Leo and Sagittarius , as this mineral can become a burden and lead them astray. as an amulet and talisman for Leo : rock crystal, agate, hawk's eye, amber, chrysoberyl, diamond, black diamond. Ideal for Sagittarius

Tektite most favors Aries and Cancer .

This gem helps Aries

With its help, Cancer Inspiration will come, success in creativity will appear.

For other zodiac signs, tektite is also a helper, but to a lesser extent.

How to wear and care

Jewelry with tektite is appropriate everywhere: at home, in the office, at a party. They look impressive when put together.

It is useful for older people to wear a ring or a ring, as it strengthens their strength and helps them maintain clarity of mind.

Caring for tektite is easy:

• It must be protected from mechanical impact.
• Clean with warm water and a soft cloth and dry in the sun.
• Do not use aggressive cleaning agents.
• It is better to store in a separate box.

Tektite is indifferent to temperature changes, bright sun, and humidity. To replenish the stone with energy, you can give it solar or lunar or lunar baths.

Stone care

If you become the happy owner of such a talisman, then you need to take care of its proper storage. Despite its hardness, it should not be kept together with other precious stones. It is best to purchase an individual box with soft upholstery for it. If the mineral becomes dusty, you need to wipe it with a cloth or rinse it under warm running water, but without using cleaning agents.

There is no need to especially protect Tektite from direct sunlight or strong humidity. They cannot negatively affect his condition and unique abilities. You can even expose the stone to the rays of the sun or moonlight for a while so that it is fed with their energy.

How to distinguish from a fake

Obsidian, plastic or glass are often sold under the guise of tektite. If you are planning to buy this stone, pay attention to its signs:

• he is massive;
• discreet shine;
• the surface relief is chaotic;
• It does not heat up immediately in your hands, unlike glass and plastic.

It is best to buy the mineral from trusted sellers.

Only an expert gemologist using special equipment can reliably identify the origin.

Price

The cost of tektite depends on the quality of the specific sample and where it is mined.

The products are made by hand, so the price is quite high.

In Russian online stores you can buy collectible material, figurines, jewelry (price/RUB):

• Moldavite (3–3.5 cm) - 5200.
• Libyan glass (2.5–3 cm) — 2350.
• figurine - 5300.
• Pendant (silver) — 3900.
• Bracelet - 2400.
• Pendant with moldavite - 2500–3500.

Jewelry with mineral

Tektite tolerates polishing well due to its high hardness and density. Therefore, they make it from:

• pendants (from 1500 rubles to 4650);
• beads (from 1900 rubles to 7200);
• earrings (from 3500 rubles to 9707.92);
• rings (from 2500 rubles to 35000);
• bracelets (from 900 rubles to 4000).

A large part of the cost of products can be the cut metal, especially if it is silver or gold.

Tektite is most often worn for healing or magical purposes, so amulets from it are often made by hand. In this case, tektite beads are bought and the intended amulet is woven. The price of beads ranges from 38 to 67 rubles per piece, depending on the size.
