There are no confirmed meteorite craters in NSW...so if you find one you can be on the news.

There are a few buried impact structures found through seismic studies. There is a theory (with no definitive evidence) that the Lorne Basin on the north coast is a large impact structure...visible to some degree on the surface.

In NSW there are lots of salt pans, geological ring type structures and weathered and topographically depressed diatremes that are often mistaken for possible craters.

Mathematically based on worldwide impacts there should be up to4 visible craters in NSW based on landmass area.

So get on google earth and six maps and find one...then get the shocked quartz and shatter cones and other evidence to prove it.
Cheers RDD
