[meteorite-list] Crater Wrong?

[Dave Myers]

Hello E.P.Grondine, and list,

I have been there and only live 1hour 10 minutes away, last I read from Ohio 
state University is that core samples taken
strongly pointed to it being a impact site! Lots of good info about it on the 
Ohio state Unv. Geo.dept

I have a geology map on my computer of the crater if anyone is interested!

Hi all - 

I have always read that Serpent Mound, Ohio was built on top of an impact 
rebound, but the other evening I was told that it was built on top of the center 
of a collapsed volcanic caldera. While functionally it does not make any 
difference, as I don't remember any shatter cones from it being offered for sale 
on the list, and I am wondering.
