It may have just been a clod of soil, held together loosely, until the drilling and collection procedures broke it apart.

Yea. I don't know where the mystery is.
It's that little volcano shaped pile of dust around the hole.
Looks just like the mound of soil that ants leave while they are borrowing.
You'll also see a dust pile like that when you are drilling in concrete with a cement bit.
