It was a big explosion. That's what it was. Haven't a clue what caused it. As it looked like a Human (Freg Grenade) explosion, but a really big one.

I think it could just be a couple of granade cause if you notice it blows up a shade with a grunt in it, so more or less it a granade or 2 that came from the invisible flying marines.

Aren't the floating AR's meant to be the flood? Mainly because the Covenant don't run from Marines. They must be running from something else. Also the explosion looks a little different to grenade explosions.

ok when ur running on the falling wood u will see on your radar several yellow dots try to look up the hills at that time and you will see flood running up there and when you pass the fallen wood thing and approach that stationary gun try ti climb the big rock is very hard but if you do you will have acces to the top part of the level and you will see dead flood and a standing marine not doing anything its pretty cool!

But if it is a grenade what throws it? Because its the Flood the Covenant are fighting against and we all know they dont throw grenades! Maybe tis a Rocket Launcher wielding Flood??

I already said that it was probably one of those invisible marines up in the air shooting, and by the way those marines in the air are the same marines thatjust go down the elevator before you and the group containing keys.
