Of the 175 impact craters found thus far on Earth, three giants stand out - Chicxulub in Mexico, Sudbury in Canada, & the Vredefort Impact Structure in South Africa. The Vredefort Structure is truly one of the geological wonders of the world. This book deals with the rocks of the Vredefort Dome, & the story they have to tell.
