A New Interpretation of Cratons
I have just read a large portion of this interesting article that is highly referenced to actual geologic journals. It goes into the deficiencies of current theories regarding the formation of cratons and the crust in general. It then presents the theory that meteorite impacts were the mechanism by which the ancient cratons were formed. I would like the opinions of Pressie, RoxRKool and Petrophysics1 on this. Dr Adequate's opinion would also be welcomed since he has quite a bit of knowledge in geology.
