Mandala Art Print - Mauritania Formation Source Image
The so-called Richat Structure is a geological formation in the Maur Adrar Desert in the African country of Mauritania. Although it resembles an impact crater, the Richat Structure formed when a volcanic dome hardened and gradually eroded, exposing the onion-like layers of rock. Acquired January 1st, 2001 by Landsat 7.
