Type: Imactite
Location: Sudbury, Ontario, Canada
87 million years ago it is theorized that an asteroid with a mass of approximately 35 cubic miles struck the earth in what is now the Sudbury region of Canada. A crater, more than 60 miles in diameter and over 8 miles deep, was instantaneously created by the Sudbury incident. Material fell back from this impact. One impactite is the Black Onaping Breccia.
