Atacamaites are rare tektites found in the Atacama Desert in Chile, which is known to be one of the driest places on Earth. These tektites are glassy natural objects that were formed by large meteorite impacts. Theories about their formation say that the enormous energy released in the collision melted rocks on the Earth's surface and shot them high into the atmosphere, where they solidified and fell back to Earth.

An impact crater that could be related to their origin has not yet been conclusively identified, which is common with some tektites that form far from the crater itself. Atacamaites are usually dark glassy in appearance, varying from black to dark green hues, and their surface is often smooth to slightly sculpted.

Unlike more common tektites, such as the Bohemian volcanics or australites, atacamaites are rare and less well known, making them sought-after objects for mineral collectors.

Spokojenost, vybral Jsem si malý vzorek wulfenitu který je vkusně umýstěn na odpovídajícím podstavci což bylo milé překvapení. Po vybalení mohl být okamžitě vystaven.

Excellent service. A fine piece very well prepared and presented. Glad to be able to use PayPal. It was well packed and arrived in reasonable amount of time. Glad to accept lower shipping cost rather than free gift. Thank you!
