Those little black saucers stand out nicely against the red earth and white quartz.

Most where about 10mm diameter, several very good condition and one was about 15mm dia with a pronounced rear dome, unfortunately badly chipped around the edges.

Very cool little bits of glass, wish I still had them.
I used to live in Kal when I was a kid, found a few of these 'saucers'(yep, while prospecting with the folks), they were intriguing but being a kid knew nothing about them and threw them away.
