Abstract

Impact glasses, tektites and some related basement rocks were analyzed for F, Cl, Br and I. The tektite and impact glasses show similar abundance patterns within the groups. Muong Nong-type tektites indicate that the halogens have been depleted in the order I > Br > Cl > F in their melt under oxidizing conditions. For Darwin Glass selective volatilization of F from the melt is a major depleting process. Cl, Br and I are lost to a lesser extent.
