With Gebel Kamil widely covered in the news lately, it got me thinking a bit
more about crater producing meteorites. My collection contains a number of
crater produces and I'll be adding this one to it in the future.
Besides Gebel Kamil, Canyon Diablo, Odessa, Campo, Sikhote, Carancas, Henbury
all immediately come to mind as collectible meteorites that produced craters. I
searched the Meteoritical Bulletin Database for the text keyword "crater" and
got 208 returns as the result.
While some of these are only named meteorites, the vast majority of the returns
are coming from the Earth Impact Database. This majority is listed as "Impact
Crater" as the type.
I'm wondering if there is a list somewhere of meteorites that are associated
with craters? That would make it easier to determine if a impact structure also
has (collectible) meteorites associated with it.
Thanks
