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.

The Richat Structure can be found on Landsat 7 WRS Path 203 Row 45, center: 21.68, -11.94.
