[meteorite-list] Impact Crater - Nevada?

[Jeff Kuyken]

Hi Count,

Interesting feature. There actually appears to be 4... maybe 5 of them 
running in a line in an almost West to East direction and graduating down in 
size. I don't know if this eliminates one origin over another. I guess both 
meteoritic and volcanic origins could do this but I'm certainly no expert in 
crater formation.

Cheers,

Jeff
