The Gulf of Mexico Yellow PZ Series Proof
The Gulf of Mexico has been found to be the manifestation of three different PZ Terminal fan Crater events. We have identified this crater as "GM Yellow". A larger image can be retrieved by clicking on the graphic. We interpret the sequence as having Y last. This is derived from the fact that the ejecta deposits comprising Lake Pontchartrain arrived from the SW, which suggests Y was later than P, and the strike point of Y interrupts the terminal wall of W, so Y must have occurred after W. Terminal fan craters are used in the treatise as the identifier for a given comet interface sequence. The ejecta deposits at Cahokia Mounds in Illinois suggest that P was prior to Y. Our analysis has not yet been able to ascertain whether P came before or after W.
Gulf of Mexico Yellow (GMY) Terminal Crater
Our proof begins with correlating the ejecta from this crater. The research has located a significant mega-divot emplacement that is manifested in the current-day Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York, USA. The location is displayed in the graphic below. The site noted as "Herkimer Diamond Mines" is discussed in the Mineralization Enigmas Section "HDM". An evaluation of the proposed Adirondacks Mega Divot emplacement is also discussed in the Enigma Section
Adirondack Mountain Emplacement
The splash component of this cratering event is believed to be responsible for the deposition of ejecta across the Cahokia Mounds site, discussed in the Earthen Burial Enigma section. We provide a local plot here.

Here is a suggested trajectory graphic for the GMY event. Note that the effects of earth rotation is not taken in account in this static display. The ejecta is traveling at a higher eastward velocity vector than the ground further north, resulting in actual placements further east than shown, hence the offset at the Adirondack area.
GMY Trajectories - proposed
Corroborative data is seen in both the topography of the Gulf of Mexico basin along the trajectory, and perhaps even more supportive is the gap seen in the Mexican peninsula at the transit point. We interpret the existence of a combination Trench-Terminal event to be driven by the sudden onset of elevation when the comet struck the coastline. The Adirondack divot is most likely the manifestation of the terrestrial unit at the costal mountains. Further work would be well spent attempting to correlate the strata of the coastal mountains with the well-docummentted melange of folded and disrupted strata that comprises the Adirondacks.
Most supportive is the existence of a transitional trenching-to-terminal event, which we interpret as being driven by the comet's orbital trajectory striking the Mexican coastal mountain range after transiting just above the Pacific Ocean. In most circumstances, the Perigee: Zero impacts are to be considered of a low Pressure-Temperature (P/T) event due to the shallow interface angles seen. In this situation, the comet was met with a sudden elevation change and was forced to strike nearly perpendicular to the terrain. The coastal mountains are being driven up by the pacific plate driving under the continent. The passage cut, no more than 300 meters in elevation, is the only east-west gap in the range along the plate collision boundary measuring 1 to 2 kilometers in elevation extending for thousands of kilometers.
Proposed PZ Trench cut through the Costal mountain range
We date this event at 750 to 1,050 AD. This suggest that humans witnessed the event. The local indian lore includes references to the sun and venus falling to earth:
Source: Britannica OnlinePictorial books of the Mixtec of Oaxaca record events in the lives of ruling families covering seven centuries, but, again, happenings are fixed only by the day on which each occurred and the year in which the day fell. Sequence is usually clear, but at times there is doubt as to which 52-year period is meant when parenthetical material, such as life histories of secondary characters, is inserted.No era is recognizable. A clouded entry concerning the descent to Earth of the Sun and Venus, perhaps assignable to AD 794, is a logical starting point, but other entries are earlier.
We also refer to the indians of the Carolinas, who have the following very interesting tradition: "a star fell to the earth, and rain soon followed (oceanic impact, causing vast amounts of water to evaporate). Days and days of rain quenched the fire. Great holes burned in the earth by the fire were filled, forming a great inland sea." Timing wise, the Carolina Indians were more likely reporting on the first of the Gulf of Mexico Craters, since it would have represented the initial opening of the Gulf.
Please reference the discussion on the mineralization at the Herkimer Diamond Mine in the enigma section. The high P/T conditions created in this impact likely created the geomorphic conditions required to create the crystals seen there. Some of the oldest rocks in Mexico are located in the Oaxacan Complex; it contains rocks 900 to 1100 Ma in age (Ortega-Gutierrez,1981). The age corresponds well to that of the Adirondacks, and the entire Grenville complex. Both areas have been found to contain iron, titanium, garnet, quartz and zircons.
The series development continues with research into the pre-orbit tracks of the GM comet body. The n-1 orbit Perigee: Zero event should directly normal to the trajectory just discussed, and offset by 90 - 120 min of earth rotation, yielding about 22 to 30 degrees of longitude. The projected tract is over the lowlands of central Brazil. No trenching event has been located in this area.
