Tektites originate in what metamorphic environment? high temperatures associated with meteorite impacts very high pressures and
temperatures associated with deep subduction high temperatures and shearing stresses in an oceanic-crust transform fault low pressure and high temperature associated with volcanism
High temperatures associated with meteorite impacts
Explanation:
When a meteorite impacts the Earth, the high temperatures and pressure from the meteorite impact melt Earth material and splashes it into the Earth's atmosphere, This Earth material falls again due to gravity as a glass shower and partially melts aquiring glassy and aerodinamic forms as they fall to Earth's soil again. Normally they are found near impact craters, composed of silica, alumina, iron, magensium, calcium, potassium and titanium.
