The article about Suavjarvi crater in Karelia gives an age for it greater than Yarrabubba's. The Suavjarvi article includes a dead link. I don't know any sources other than said dead link to verify Suavjarvi's age. SlyGuyFox (talk) 06:04, 7 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
I suspect the reason that Yarrabubba impact structure is regarded to be the oldest known impact structure is because it is still disputed whether the putative Suavjarvi impact structure is either a real impact structure or misinterpretation of ordinary geologic features for which evidence of shock metamorphism is completely lacking.
