This list includes all31 confirmed impact structures inAsia andRussia as listed in theEarth Impact Database. These features were caused by the collision of largemeteorites orcomets with the Earth. For eroded or buried craters, the stated diameter typically refers to an estimate of originalrim diameter, and may not correspond to present surface features.

For additional geographic grouping, non-Siberian Russian impact structures include the region'sfederal district.

Unconfirmed impact structures

[edit]
Main article:List of possible impact structures on Earth

The following craters are officially considered "unconfirmed" because they are not listed in the Earth Impact Database. Due to stringent requirements regarding evidence and peer-reviewed publication, newly discovered craters or those with difficulty collecting evidence generally are known for some time before becoming listed. However, entries on the unconfirmed list could still have an impact origin disproven.
