Edeowie glass

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Edeowie_glass an entity of type: Work

Edeowie glass is a natural glass, or lechatelierite, found in the Australian state of South Australia. It is slag-like, opaque material found as vesicular free forms or sheet-like/ropy masses. It is located throughout a semi-continuous swath in baked pod-like clay-bearing sediment in an area of about 55 kilometres (34 mi) long by 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) along the western side of the Flinders Ranges near Parachilna and east of Lake Torrens. The region in which this glass is found is mostly restricted to concentrations correlated to the ancient shoreline terrace sequence at the locality. It is typically black in appearance, but can occur as variegated grey-green with various streak-like impurities. Pale grey and red-brownish surfaces can be caused by chemical weathering (oxidation, mineraliza rdf:langString

Pale grey and red-brownish surfaces can be caused by chemical weathering (oxidation, mineralization) and devitrification.
