Libyan Desert Glass, a impact glass found in the Great Sand Sea of the Libyan-Egyptian Libyan Desert along the border. analysisThe Great Sand Sea Desert stretches over an area of 72,000km2 linking Egypt and Libya. It was first described in a scientific paper in 1933 and is known as Libyan desert glass. But none are as rich in silica as Libyan desert glass, nor are they found in such large lumps and quantities. Such pressure and temperature conditions provided us with the proof for the meteorite impact origin of the glass.
