Chemical composition of moldavites from the Cheb Basin and their relationship to other tektites of the Central European strewn field
 Skála, Roman
Basic physical properties (weight, shape, color and sculpture) were evaluated for over 350 individual finds of tektites from 4 different localities in the Cheb Basin. They are similar to those observed for South Bohemian moldavites. Totally, 24 tektites from the Cheb Basin and 17 from the South-Bohemian and Moravian substrewnfields have been characterized chemically using EPMA. Contents of major elements overlap between the two sample sets covering a broad range; trends observed in the Harker plots, however, seem to differentiate several partial groups. Minor and trace elements have been measured with an LA-ICP-MS technique. Preliminary 40Ar/39Ar dating shows that Cheb tektites are coeval with moldavites from South Bohemia and Western Moravia. Finding of a new moldavite substrewnfield around Cheb substantiate the theory that moldavites were ejected from the Ries impact structure in a fan-shaped jet.
