Coesite, the high-pressure polymorph of SiO2, hitherto known
only as a synthetic compound, is identified as an abundant mineral in
sheared Coconino sandstone at Meteor Crater, Arizona. This natural
occurrence has important bearing on the recognition of meteorite impact
craters in quartz-bearing geologic formations.
