I cut what I believe to be an unclassified impact melt a while back and didn't think it had much metal other than a single mm-sized blob and some very fine threads. I polished it up well the other day and found many tiny perfect spheres of metal under 20x magnification. I don't have much to compare it to and am curious as to whether most/all impact melts contain these. Are there various degrees of melting that have been documented?
