| ⓘ Calcite Formula: CaCO3 |
| ⓘ Coesite Formula: SiO2 |
| ⓘ Cristobalite Formula: SiO2 |
| ⓘ Daubréelite Formula: Fe2+Cr3+2S4 |
| ⓘ Diamond Formula: C Locality: Polsingen Impact Breccias, Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen District, Middle Franconia, Bavaria, Germany Description: Impact diamonds in glass bombs and gneiss elemnts of the suevite.
Diamonds appear as thin pseudo-hexagonal plates (up to 100 µm) : they have formed by displacive phase transformation in solid state (martensitic or diffusion process) from graphite. |
| ⓘ Graphite Formula: C Locality: Polsingen Impact Breccias, Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen District, Middle Franconia, Bavaria, Germany Description: Residual in diamonds. |
| ⓘ Hematite Formula: Fe2O3 |
| ⓘ Ilmenite Formula: Fe2+TiO3 |
| ⓘ Iron Formula: Fe Description: As platelets and as spindles developed around schreibersite nuclei. Neumann bands are present. |
| ⓘ Iron var. Kamacite Formula: (Fe,Ni) Description: As platelets and as spindles developed around schreibersite nuclei. Neumann bands are present. |
| ⓘ 'Limonite' |
| ⓘ 'Manganese Oxides' |
| ⓘ 'Manganese Oxides var. Manganese Dendrites' |
| ⓘ 'Plessite' |
| ⓘ Rutile Formula: TiO2 Locality: Polsingen Impact Breccias, Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen District, Middle Franconia, Bavaria, Germany Description: Rutile is associated with two other TiO2 polymorphs :
- TiO2 (alpha-PbO2 structure) with pink internal reflections
- TiO2 (Baddeleyite structure P21/c) with intense blue internal reflections and reflectivity much higher than rutile
TiO2 with ZrO2 structure forms fine-grained polycrystalline monophase grains surrounded by shock-twinned ilmenite and rutile, or single grains rimmed by rutile, alpha-PbO2 TiO2, ilmenite and titanite.

| ⓘ Schreibersite Formula: (Fe,Ni)3P |
| ⓘ Taenite Formula: (Fe,Ni) |
| ⓘ Titanite Formula: CaTi(SiO4)O |
| ⓘ Troilite Formula: FeS |
