Impact‐Generated Permeability and Hydrothermal Circulation at the Vredefort Impact Structure, South Africa

Abstract The 2.02 billion year old Vredefort impact structure in South Africa offers a unique opportunity to study large‐scale impact processes on Earth. Vredefort's large size (∼250 km in diameter) and eroded topography provides the opportunity to study the effects of shock physics at depth an...
