Mineral: WIS Material Sample
Description: Locality: U.S. Western Interior Seaway
Displays a closer view of WIS sample (pictured above) showing glass-like crystal growth. This sample is very similar to the possible marine-organic-materials you recently located in the western-desert area. The crystal growth obviously and likely occurred after the impact process, but still displays strange features of possible toasted-melt and deformation. These material samples have always presented problems with absolutes and solid explanations.
