Rod-shaped, slightly twisted moldavite from Zatáčka (Czechoslovakia) purchased at the 2017 Munich Mineral Show. I’ve dubbed it the "asparagus". Moldavites are natural glasses that are genetically related to the Ries meteorite impact about 15 million years ago. Their water content is extremely low. It varies between 0.006 and 0.010 wt%. Moldavites, contrary to other tektite groups, are translucent or transparent.The color of these silica glasses ranges from pale green to brown.
