Introduction
I am a PhD candidate at the University of Western Ontario. My research is on melt emplacement processes in terrestrial meteorite impact craters by investigating microtextures and geochemistry of impactites.

A detailed analysis of the textural and geochemical diversity of lunar meteorite Touat 005. Type specimens indicate a sample rich in anorthositic clasts and minor melt rock component, however, a newly acquired specimen may reveal increased heterogeneity in this meteorite
Lonar Crater located in Maharashtra (76.52°E, 19.98°N, ~563 m amsl.) , India, is a simple impact crater with a diameter of 1.8 km and the hypersaline lake formed in it lies at about 137 m below the raised rim of the crater. A previous study described the impact glasses from Lonar with respect to their geochemistry and microtextures [1]. In this wor...
