Re: [meteorite-list] Image of Canadian impact crater

Hello Rob, List

That structure is not an impact crater. The structure is located
on Sabine Peninsula, Melville Island. The island is largely
formed of an erosion platform of folded rocks and the structure
you see together with another one located near the shore, a little
to northeast are diapirs, not craters. Anyway, the photo is very
tricky 



Best,
Andrei

Hi All,

Looks like a very obvious impact crater in northern Canada.  Evidently
this feature was first spotted by a U.S. Air Force Navigator back in
the 1960's using ground mapping radar, but based on the above image
I should think it would have been easily spotted in regular aerial
photography.  Is this feature a known and named impact?
