GUID (UUID V4):

Rocks from the Khamaryn–Khural–Khiid complex were melilite–nepheline and ferroan (tridymite–sekaninaite and cristobalite–fayalite) paralavas, as well as crystobalite clinker and vitreous rocks produced by the partial melting of pelitic rocks. Sample MN-1417 is mostly glass that hosts numerous xenoliths of vitreous clinker and molten pelite (possibly, mudstone), abundant partially dissolved or fused grains of detrital quartz, and rare grains of zircon and ferropseudobrookite–pseudobrookite with rutile inclusions.
