摘要: The genesis of the fossil crater at Brent is a stimulating contemporary geological debate. Meteorite impact and endogenic models are being considered. Geological evidence suggests formed 475 to 750 m.y. ago. One K/Ar age determination on alnoite from has an 576 ± 40 Dates four rock samples described as microsyenites or “melt rocks” below fall between 310 365 If carliey than ago, these young ages could be result younger hydrothermal alteration, although rocks themselves do not support this interpretation. apparent true ages, have significantly later can by meteorite impact.
