Scientific paper

The major element and trace element content of tektite fragments and microtektites found in deep-sea sediments from Barbados and DSDP (Deep Sea Drilling Project) Site 612 on the continental slope off New Jersey have been determined. The compositions are consistent with the conclusion that the samples from both occurrences belong to the North American tektite strewn field. However, the chemistry of the samples from both occurrences is not identical with the bediasite or georgianite chemistry. These differences show that there are geographical variations in composition in the North American strewn field.
