[meteorite-list] Open Access (Downloadable) Papers on Impact Cratering , Sudbury, and So Forth

[Paul H.]

Dear Friends,

There is an open-access summary paper about impact cratering
as a fundamental process in geoscience and planetary science
by a couple of well-known planetary geologists that can be 
downloaded from the “Journal of Earth System Science”. The
paper is:

Pati, J. K., and W. U. Reimold, 2007, mpact cratering — 
fundamental process in geoscience and planetary science.
Journal of Earth System Science. vol. 116, no. 2, pp. 81-169.

This paper has a wonderful summary along with color geological 
maps of the relationship between metaliferous ores and geology
of the Sudbury Impact Structure.
