Scientific paper

Further fission-track dating experiments have been done to examine the associations between tektite falls and various impact glasses. The previous ages found for Libyan desert glass by fission track dating, and for Ries Kessel glass and the Martha's Vineyard tektite by K--Ar dating, are confirmed. Although some low ages are found for samples from the Ivory Coast and the Ashanti Crater, the results support the value of 1·3 million years found by , , and . Likely maximum ages are given for several impact glasses which are apparently not associated with tektite falls.
