[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 664255, member: 4386"] Within the Otway Ranges themselves is probably no good for anything (I am there every few months just walking into waterfalls etc). Mainly just monotonous Jurassic sandstone. Around the coast on the beaches is OK (eg Moonlight Head) because agates and sharks teeth have weathered out of younger volcanic rocks that only overlie the Jurassic rocks east and west of the ranges. But Moonlight Head is quite a good locality for them. The tektites are there because a shower of them swept across Australia to the Otways area from Cambodia after a meteorite strike. They extend west to at least Warnambool. [/QUOTE]
