Muong Nong-type tektites are one of three tektite groups occurring on land (the others being
splash-form and aerodynamically shaped tektites). They differ in appearance from splash …

To improve the scarce data base of H2O content in tektites and impact glasses, we analyzed
26 tektites from all four strewn fields and 25 impact glass samples for their H2O content. We …

In this study, the effects of iron and magnesium on International Simple Glass (ISG)
alteration were studied throughout 511 days of aqueous leaching experiments. The aim was …

Impact spherules in Cretaceous/Tertiary (K/T) boundary clays and claystones consist of two
types; each type is confined to its own separate layer of the boundary couplet in the Western …

The minor elements present in the nuclear glass composition or coming from the
groundwater of the future repository may impact glass alteration. In this study, the effects of …

We have individually analyzed twelve black and seven yellow glasses from the K/T
boundary section at Beloc, Haiti, plus three smectite mantles around black glasses. The …

In this study, the effects of Fe, Mg and Ca elements on the International Simple Glass (ISG)
alteration were studied throughout 511 days of aqueous leaching experiments. The aim was …

We have investigated a 25.75-year old leaching experiment to improve our understanding of
the mechanisms controlling glass dissolution in geological disposal conditions. A SON68 …

Water contact subjects waste glass to chemical attack that results in the formation of surface
alteration layers. Twoprincipal hypotheses have been advanced concerning the effect of …

A program was established for DOE Environmental Restoration and Waste Management
(EM) to evaluate factors that are anticipated to affect waste glass reaction during repository …
