A new determination of the sge of a Moldavite, Indochinite, Billitonite, and Australite was made using the potassium-argon method. One gram samples from each tektite was outgassed in ultra-high vacuum at 1600 C. The argon content and its isotopic composition was determined on a sennitive mass spectrometer. The values obtalned are tabulated and show that the Moldavite is from the early Miocene, whereas the others are from the Pleistocene. The results are compared with those obtained by other investigators. (J.S.R.)
