Abstract
Logancha is an eroded impact structure in eastern Siberia, formed on basaltic rocks. Its diameter of 14 km is estimated based on gravity and magnetic anomalies, even if the present diameter depression is larger due to intensive river erosion and slumping of the original crater rim. PDFs and isotropization of plagioclase grains are observed in thin sections.
