Hey Dave,

Check out the above web page. I'm not sure about the
correct terminology, but the images might be what you
are more interested in.

Dear List;
Is there a defined difference between impact glass and
impactite? I see one picture of an impact glass that
was hard to discern from impactite.
So, lost as usual, is there a definition, or is it
just a difference in the melt degree?
Thank you,
Dave Freeman
