Synopsis "Shocked Quartz"

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.Shocked quartz is a form of quartz that has a microscopic structure that is different from normal quartz. Under intense pressure (but limited temperature), the crystalline structure of quartz will be deformed along planes inside the crystal. These planes, which show up as lines under a microscope, are called planar deformation features (PDFs), or shock lamellae. Shocked quartz was discovered after underground nuclear bomb testing, which caused the intense pressures required to form shocked quartz. Eugene Shoemaker showed that shocked quartz is also found inside craters created by meteor impact, such as the Barringer Crater. The presence of shocked quartz proves that these craters were formed by an impact: a volcano would not generate the pressure required.
