Impact Remasteredelite Exploiters

An example of impactite on Earth

Impactite is rock created or modified by one or more impacts of a meteorite.[1][2] Impactites are considered metamorphic rock, because their source materials were modified by the heat and pressure of the impact.[3] On Earth, impactites are made primarily of modified terrestrial material, sometimes with pieces of the original meteorite.[3]

  • Impact left the team in October of 2012 to join Tempest but rejoined after that team was picked up by the Xenics organization. Impact left the Xenics team in February of 2013 to join the brand new roster of SK Telecom T1 2 that featured bengi, Faker, Piglet, and PoohManDu.
  • We partner with groups on an even playing field to generate trust, enhance strategy, and drive impact. Impact Experience’s unique approach to addressing the very critical (and timely) issues of structural racism and incorporates a variety of powerful tools to tackle prejudice by confronting and engaging with the historical and ongoing realities of inequality and racial bias.

When a large meteorite hits a planet, it can radically deform the rocks and regolith that it hits. The heat, pressure, and shock of the impact changes these materials into impactite.[3] Only very massive impacts generate the heat and pressure needed to transform a rock, so impactites are created rarely.[3]

Characteristics[edit]

Xenics Storm Profile Page

Impactite includes shock-metamorphosed target rocks, melts (suevites) and mixtures of the two, as well as sedimentary rocks with significant impact-derived components (shocked mineral grains, tektites, anomalous geochemical signatures, etc.). In June 2015, NASA reported that impact glass has been detected on the planet Mars. Such material may contain preserved signs of ancient life—if life existed.[4] Impactites are generally classified into three groups: shocked rocks, impact melt, and impact breccias.[2]

Shocked rock[edit]

These have been transformed by the shock of the impact.

Impact melts[edit]

IMPACT: Manual Therapy Certification Program

When a meteor strikes a planet's surface, the energy release from the impact can melt rock and soil into a liquid. The liquid then cools and becomes an impact melt.[2] If the liquid cools and hardens quickly into a solid, impact glass forms before the atoms have time to arrange into a crystal lattice. Impact glass can be dark brown, almost black, and partly transparent.[5] Sometimes, the cooled liquid does form a crystal structure. In that case, it would still be considered an impact melt, but not an impact glass.[2]

Impact breccias[edit]

Oxford[clarification needed] defines breccias as “a rock consisting of angular fragments cemented together.” An impact breccia is formed when a meteor shatters a rock and then cements it back together. Some breccias contain impact melts.[3]

Examples of impactite[edit]

Alga crater on Mars is a possible site for preserved ancient life, after detection of an impact glass deposit.[4]

SK Telecom T1 Profile Page

Impactite has been found, for example, at the following impact craters:

  • Alamo bolide impact (Late Devonian) of Nevada
  • Alga crater on the planet Mars[4]
  • Barringer crater, Arizona.[6]
  • Charlevoix crater of Québec
  • Darwin Crater from Tasmania (source of Darwin glass)
  • Lake Lappajärvi, Finland (source of Kärnäite)
  • Manicouagan crater of Québec
  • Neugrund crater of Estonia
  • Nördlinger Ries crater, Germany
  • Rochechouart crater, France
  • Stac Fada Member, Scotland
  • Wabar craters, Saudi Arabia
