Scientific paper

Fluorine (by combined distillation-spectrophotometry) and chlorine (by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry) contents were determined in normal and Muong Nong-type tektites. Contents of F (78-285 ppm) and Cl (3-44 ppm) in normal tektites are about 4 and 10 times lower, respectively, than in the earth's continental crust, and this is attributed to selective volatilization during impact melting. Muong Nong-type tektites are characterized by similar F (124-312 ppm) but higher Cl (65-205 ppm) contents and may have resulted from a lower-temperature event.
