Hello Michael, That term applies to the "flow-lines" in all tektite material in general: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6V66-4HW80JN-P&_user=10&_rdoc=1&_fmt=&_orig=search&_sort=d&view=c&_acct=C000050221&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=d0f28fcf67ca9b3fda0bae5bb69ec35f http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6VDB-3VW7S1X-5&_user=10&_rdoc=1&_fmt=&_orig=search&_sort=d&view=c&_acct=C000050221&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=78afbbfe49682a49c9b8accc306504dc And not necessarily to the meteoric material contained in LDG; schlieren generally applies to the visible differences in density apparent in layers and ripples in impact glasses, as well as other substances. In fact, in tektites, this usually applies to areas richer in SiO2 - not meteoric material.
