did a part of it fall off in that last frame?
I don't think so, but a better processed image and video shows a chunk of the bedrock was stuck between the drill and one of the drill stabilizer posts. See the improved video and highlight still image on this post by @65dBnoise :)
Still waiting for additional images, hopefully they'll show if the coring was successful and the condition of the drill
