indochiniteとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Indochinite Tektites are solidified rock, which was fired into the Earth's upper atmosphere by a meteorite impact and subsequently cooled to form the distinctive glass-like structure. Indochinite Tektites are distinctly dark black in contrast to the green of European Moldavite Tektites. It is estimated that these bodies of solified magma are 700,000 years old. Indochinite tektites, as the name suggests, are found in the Indochinese peninsula, from Australia and the Pacific islands of Micronesia in the east and south, to China and Indonesia in the north and west. The largest indochinite was an indochinite Muong-Nong type tektite, which had a mass of 29.0kg.
