Mpeg notified me of this Impact Crater that was discovered on Google Earth.
I can't find any mention or reference to it anywhere or on any maps or charts.

I don't want to upset anyone but I did not find this site first. It was brought to my attention by Andrew Glikson from Canberra. As you can see he attributes it to a Arthur Hickman.
I'm sorry if I misled anyone, but I can't take credit for it. Its the way things on the Google Earth forum work which may have tripped me up.

I take this opportunity of drawing your attention to a crater identified last year by Arthur Hickman 40 km north of Newman, and visited by me. A Google Earth and a news release are attached.
With my best wishes

No worries Mpeg,
The article that explains it all was only released yesterday so all we have to do is change the name of the crater in the original post and everything should be honky-dory !

Better luck with the next one, I know you're out there looking.
