| Abstract: | 29Si nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used to characterize the silica phases in a moderately-shocked Coconino
sandstone from Meteor Crater, Arizona. The spectra were recorded using direct polarization, magic-angle spinning, and variable
delay times in a saturation recovery pulse sequence. Resonances observed at -97.3, -107.1, -113.9 and -191.2 ppm were assigned
to a densified hydrous form of amorphous silica (D phase), quartz, coesite and stishovite phases, respectively. The relative
percentages were estimated as 1.7, 80.6, 16.4 and 1.3% for the D, quartz, coesite, and stishovite phases. The power-law recoveries
of the magnetization for the quartz and coesite phases can be interpreted in terms of their phase geometries.
