Trace element abundances in Ivory Coast normal microtektites and Australasian bottle-green microtektites confirm that microtektites are genetically related to tektites in the associated strewn field. Although major and compatible trace element abundances imply that bottle-green microtektites are members of a fractional crystallization sequence, the similar rare earth element distributions in Australasian normal and bottle-green microtektites and tektites cannot be explained by a simple fractionation model. The similar REE abundances in tektites and microtektites of widely different major element composition also preclude simple models calling for sedimentary rock precursors.
