Shatter Cone Impactite | 12.65 grams | Rochechouart Impact Structure | France | SO24 Inesite Dimensions: 62x48x46 mm / 2This is a fantastic shatter cone from France weighing 12. 65 grams and measuring 33x25x13 mm. Although not a meteorite, impactites and shatter cones are directly linked to them and their impacts. Shatter cones are evidence that the rock has been subjected to an extreme shock with very brief high pressures. Shatter cones are rare geological features that are only known to form in the bedrock beneath large meteorite impact craters. They have a
