Proterozoic basins of Canada: Early Proterozoic sequences in Labrador
Early Proterozoic ( Aphebian) sedimentary and volcanic rocks in Labrador are described from two tectonic belts: the Churchill Province of western Labrador, and the Makkovik Subprovince of eastern Labrador. The Aphebian in the Churchill Province is represented mainly by the Labrador Trough ( Kaniapiskau Supergroup) but also in the Laporte Croup, Lake ...

Revisiting the Hummeln structure, Sweden—A shallow marine Cambrian impact structure
Abstract Hummeln is a simple impact structure located in south‐eastern Sweden. It is approximately 1.2 km in diameter and almost completely covered by a lake. Here, we present the first detailed investigation of impactites and mapping of the 164.25 m deep drill core Hummeln‐1 with a focus on impact metamorphism and the impact process.
