[meteorite-list] Shocked Quartz Found at Upheaval Dome, Utah

In part, this abstract stated:

“In this study, we document, for the first time, shocked 
quartz grains from this crater in sandstones of the 
Jurassic Kayenta Formation. The investigated grains 
contain multiple sets of decorated planar deformation 
features. ... The shocked quartz grains were found in 
the periphery of the central uplift in the northeastern 
sector of the crater, which most likely represents the 
cross range crater sector.”

Dear Ted,

What is the citation for this study? (Where was it published?)

“Matt - In a study we did several years ago, we 
found one shocked quartz grain per 7000-12000 
grains in various sedimentary rocks and glacial
tillites.”

“really makes me wonder how much shocked 
quartz could be found as "background".”

I am not saying that about this study, but from a curiosity.

Matt - In a study we did several years ago, we found one shocked quartz
grain per 7000-12000 grains in various sedimentary rocks and glacial
tillites.
