Raman spectra of samples taken from the sample sites 8-B2, 8-B3 and 15-B and 15-C provide evidence for an impact scenario in the Mt Warning area in East-Australia. The 30 km crater-shaped Mt Warning area and a smaller diameter 1.5 km circular crater structure, which is located directly near the crater-rim of the Mt Warning Crater, seem to belong to a large-scale impact event caused by the 320 km Cape York Crater in NE-Australia. The possible 320 km Cape York Crater belongs to a Secondary Impact Crater Chain along the NE-coast of Australia which was caused by ejecta from the giant 1270 x 950 km Permian Triassic Crater in the Arctic Sea. According to the current geological theory Mount Warning is a strongly erroded shield volcano. Refering to my Permian-Triassic Impact Hypothesis Mt Warning is the result of an impact of a big ejecta-fragment from the Cape York Crater or from the PT-Impact Crater, that caused this 30 km secondary crater which fractured Earth’s crust and resulted in the growth of a large shield volcano on top of the crater. The Raman spectra of quartz from sample site 8-B2, from the foot of the hypothtical main crater-wall of the Mt Warning Crater, provides first evidence for an impact event ! The shifts of the main Raman peaks to the lower frequencies 463, 260, 205 and 127 cm-1 which are visible in the Raman Spectra of the quartz-sample, clearly indicate that the quartz from this site was exposed to a shock pressure of around 20 - 22 GPa (see page 17). Further evidence comes from the quartz inclusions of rock sample 8-B3 from the same location. The shifts of the main Raman peaks to the lower frequencies 263 and 205 cm-1 indicate the same shock pressure of around 20 - 22 GPa. The spectra of the rock samples from site 15-B and 15-C, the central mountain in the Mt Warning Crater, all indicate magmatic rocks which seems to confirm the fomation of a volcano in the crater-center, in contrast to the real impact-(wall)-structures on the crater-rim. All spectra were made with a BRUKER Senterra-II Raman Microscope ( wavenumber precision <0.1cm-1 ). Images of the analysed rock samples and photos of the sample sites are in the Appendix at page 12. Images of all sample sites are available on www.permiantriassic.de or www.permiantriassic.at
