| Abstract: | The Acraman ejecta horizon is a thin (0-40 cm) sand/breccia unit consisting almost entirely of angular volcanic fragments. The horizon occurs within Neoproterozoic deep-water shales of the Adelaide Geosyncline and Officer Basin. Much evidence points to the derivation of the horizon from Australia's largest meteorite impact feature, the Acraman structure, in the Gawler Ranges. |
