description Veevers Overview
Veevers is a small meteorite impact crater in Western Australia. It is distinguished by an unusually well-preserved bowl-shaped form about 80 meters across and by shatter cones, rock structures created by the shock wave of an impact. The crater's symmetrical shape and preserved impact evidence make it useful for studying small impacts. It lies in the arid Australian landscape, where limited erosion has helped retain its form.
