3D Modeling of Suevite Massifs with UHPHT Glasses at the Kara Astrobleme and the Ust`-Kara Area (Pay-Khoy, Kara seashore, Arctic, Russia)
Abstract The unusual natural ultrahigh pressure high temperature (UHPHT) impact glasses have been discovered at the Southern part of the Kara astrobleme (Pay-Khoy, Russia) in 2015. The glasses form a complex of stockwork-like system of thin vein bodies set within suevite breccia at the right bank of...

| Summary: | Abstract The unusual natural ultrahigh pressure high temperature (UHPHT) impact glasses have been discovered at the Southern part of the Kara astrobleme (Pay-Khoy, Russia) in 2015. The glasses form a complex of stockwork-like system of thin vein bodies set within suevite breccia at the right bank of the Kara river. The Kara glasses have many specific features pointing to UHPHT origin. For better understanding of the geological position of the UHPHT impact glasses we have provided additional field observation with the use of copter facility to observe the outcrops from the «air-bird high» and collecting data for 3D modeling. Here we present natural topological details for the more complete analysis of the discovered UHPHT complex at the Kara River (Pay-Khoy, Russia) and “bottom flow” suevites with UHPHT impact ribbon-like glasses on the Baydarata Bay shore (Kara Sea, Arctic, Russia). |
