Hi, List
Just to reinforce a point...
If you go that second story:
http://www.livinginperu.com/news/4840
and click to enlarge the picture, you will see
a marvelous view of the material "excavated"
by the impact that is now turned over in the
"rim." The great majority of it is blocks of
country stone. I would say that 75% of the
crater ejecta is shattered rocky strata. (The
Peruvian sources say it is mostly Cenozoic
limestone.) Big blocks of stone, and dirt a
minority component. This was NOT a "wet
soil" soft landing.
