Comparison of the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary impact events and the 0.77-Ma Australasian tektite event : relevance to mass extinction / by E. C. T. Chao. - [Washington]: [United States Government Printing Office], [1993]. - iv, 22 p. : ill., maps, tables ; 28 cm. - 2050 .
Includes bibliographical references (p. 19-22).
Reinterpretation of iridium anomalies, shocked quartz, and microtektites attributed to cratering events in Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary sections. Evidence from the Ries crater of Germany and Australasian tektites is essential to understanding giant craters and mass extinction.
