Scientific paper

Instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) was used to determine selected trace element concentrations for four Muong Nong-type tektites with high refractive indices and no relict mineral inclusions and one with low refractive index and relict inclusions, to determine if there are any systematic differences in trace element compositions between the two groups. The data were compared with published trace element data for sixteen Muong Nong-type tektites which have low refractive indices and, therefore, should contain relict inclusions. Except for Ta, which had lower concentrations in the high refractive index group, there is no consistent difference in trace element compositions between the two groups. These results are interpreted to indicate a single, slightly heterogeneous source for the Muong Nong-type tektites, rather than different source regions.
