Talk:Jebel Uweinat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Is it just me or does Jebel Uweinat and the large mountainous structure to the northwest look suspiciously like either a) volcanoes or b) impact craters? I'm leaning toward impact craters. Neither structure has either marking on Google Earth. I'm not a geologist, but I did take enough geology in college to have the thought and think maybe a serious geologist might want to look into this. I'll try to circulate this message.

- the ring shape might well be a crater, compare the 'nearby' (300 km to the north) Kebira Crater. dab (ᛏ) 19:53, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
I read on a website that the structure is a dome, the top of which was shaved off. That's totally possible. Now my question is, was that the explaination for the structure before or after it became widely accepted that there were large impact craters on Earth? --Cdogsimmons 17:45, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
