Well, we did this a few months ago, but it wasn't glass. But what do you mean, glass? Surely not transparent. Very tile-like, too. And very tough. VERY importantly, how big are the pieces of glass?
A lot of remodeling was happening so we had the GC add a project. We defined the area where we would put the mount. We defined hole locations. He removed the tiles in that area and added masses of studs where we were to bolt in. He then placed tiles, with oversize holes placed in them (3/4" where we needed 3/8").
We used a Chief TS525, placing rubber sheets about 0.050" thick behind the wall part of the mount near each bolt. After it was done and I hung on it for a moment, we proceeded. It's been fine.
Oh, yes: we used lag bolts with the proper size pilot holes.

A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
