I have no idea. My familiarity with earth sciences is fairly limited to what I learned in grammar and high school, except for that which I post from the net.

A mining friend from Sudbury says the big nickel deposit was from a meteor impact.

I have a large polished chunk of the Sudbury ore that looks almost exactly like the photo. The fleks are silver (nickel) colored and seem to be the metallic element.

They had a stand set up and were sawing slabs for tourists. I picked up a 5 pound piece of the cutoff trash for my collection for free.
