Kentland Indiana Impact Large Shatter Cone 36 lbs

Kentland Indiana Large White Shatter Cone – 38 lbs.

The Kentland crater in Indiana is one of the best-preserved impact structures in North America, renowned for its impressive shatter cones. These unique geological formations are definitive evidence of meteorite impacts, forming under extreme pressure and shock waves. With their distinctive conical shape and finely striated, horsetail-like patterns, shatter cones offer valuable insights into the immense forces generated during an impact event.

Insights from Kentland Shatter Cones

Shatter cones from the Kentland impact site provide a rare opportunity to study high-velocity impact events. They help geologists understand factors such as impact angle, pressure dynamics, and crater formation. As a result, Kentland remains a crucial site for research into planetary impact mechanics and Earth's geological evolution.
