I have no idea what the caption means by "gun-casing remains" (which could have taken a beating in the collapse, whatever they are), but that looks like a pistol grip sticking out of your "igneous rock." Why didn't it melt?

Anyway, I think it's safe to say you're inferring more than this one photo will decently allow. This photo has been floating around the web for a couple of years now, but I can't find any followup to determine what that stuff really is. Until there is, it ain't no "smoking gun."
