Gosse Bluff, a meteorite crater created by a massive cosmic impact about 130 million years ago. The ramparts 250 m high and inner crater 4 km wide represents the base of a rebound 'splash' that formed far below the vaporisation chamber and remained frozen in the subterranean strata until it was gradually revealed by erosion.
