After the Moldavite formed, long-term contact with groundwater, minerals and naturally occurring acids within the surrounding sediment gradually etched the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition and density of the gravel deposits affected how this process developed. This created the pits, channels and detailed patterns for which Moldavite from the Vrábče area is known.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow Moldavite Formed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoldavite is a natural tektite, a type of impact glass formed approximately 14.8 million years ago during the meteorite impact that created the Nördlinger Ries crater in southern Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe impact produced extreme heat and pressure, melting silica-rich surface material and projecting it high into the atmosphere.
