Abstract
► Almost 200 circular structures exist in basalts and conglomerates in Patagonia, Argentina. ► New magnetic and electromagnetic surveys help constrain the origin of these structures. ► Magnetic anomalies and higher conductivity exist around the structure rims. ► These anomalies are associated with accumulations of basalt clasts. ► Evidence suggests that the circular structures are of extra-terrestrial impact origin.
