[Thomas Kurtz]

Hello list,

in the Earth Impact Database I can not find this structure, which is about 20km in diameter and located in Morais Macedo de Cavaleiros, Portugal

Does anybody know anything about the origin of this round structure ?

Thank you,

with best wishes from the Ries-crater in Germany.

PS.:

In the case anybody of you is planning to visit the famous RIES-Crater (27km) in this summer, just let me know. I´m living and working in this impact site since 2007.
