Abstract
The presence of condensate glass was established for the first time in natural terrestrial impact glasses. Its existence was previously predicted on the basis of shock evaporation experiments. Condensate glass was found in the irghizites of the Zhamanshin crater. Its characteristic features were described, including a combination of high silica content with the presence of nanoscale crystalline nuclei and typical globular morphology under TEM.
