A collection of irghizites and microirghizites selected by the authors during two field seasons 2018–2019 at the Zhamanshin impact structure (Kazakhstan) was studied. The main task is to identify and study mineral inclusions regarding the morphological features of the samples. This study will help to resolve existing ambiguities and contradictions in the data on these impact rocks. On the other hand, it will serve to understand the genesis and ontogenesis of the impact glasses (i.e., zhamanshinites, irghizites, and microirghizites) of the Zhamanshin astrobleme in general and will provide information for the reconstruction of the impact event.
