Thank you, Paul, for sharing this with us: very interesting indeed! I've
always tried to find out more regarding a possible meteorite-knowledge of
the Australian aboriginies, but could only find very few information
(Henbury f.e.). Now, this is new for me, wonderful.
Best regards,
Matthias B.

"His suspicions were confirmed when he visited the
site with a team of geophysicists and astrophysicists,
who found evidence that a popular tourist location in
the national park called Palm Valley contains the
remains of an ancient impact crater.
"We found shocked quartz, which is only produced by
a substantial impact and its presence in the rock samples
and the morphology of the structure are the major
indicators that Palm Valley is a crater,” Mr Hamacher said."
