  Greater Sudbury, Ontario - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Greater Sudbury was created in 2001 by amalgamating the cities and towns of the Regional Municipality of Sudbury, along with several previously unincorporated geographic townships.
Sudbury was incorporated as a town in 1883, and as a city in 1930.
Prior to 1973, Sudbury comprised portions of the geographic townships of Neelon and McKim.

 Sudbury (electoral district) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sudbury is a federal and provincial electoral district in Ontario, Canada, that has been represented in the Canadian House of Commons since 1949, and in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario since 1905.
It initially included a large portion of the Sudbury District; in 1952, the boundaries were narrowed significantly to include only the city of Sudbury, the geographic township of McKim and the town of Copper Cliff.
In 1952, it was redefined to consist of the city of Sudbury, the township of McKim, and the town of Copper Cliff.

 Sudbury, Canada
Sudbury, often referred to as the mining capital of the world, is situated beside Ramsey Lake in northern Ontario, about five hours' drive north of Toronto.
As for the surrounding landscape, it is reminiscent of the surface of the moon.
Up-to-date research into the geology of the region suggests that the depression or "basin" in which Sudbury lies is a massive crater formed by a meteorite striking this south-western part of the Canadian Shield with enormous velocity many millions of years ago.

 The Sudbury Structure
Over time, and with additional study, it was discovered that the composition of the ore at Sudbury did not exactly match that which would be expected from a simple magmatic differentiation, and a hydrothermal origin, in which hot solutions dissolve, concentrate, and redeposit the ore material, was considered by some geologists instead.
Since neither theory completely explained all of the details that were observed in the Sudbury Structure, controversy between the proponents of the respective theories ensued.
This finding, coupled with the occurrence of shocked minerals in the structure, lends new evidence to the theory that the Sudbury Structure and the ore deposits contained therein are the remains of an ancient meteorite crater.

Sudbury Neutrino Observatory is a heavy-water Cherenkov detector that is designed to detect neutrinos produced by fusion reactions in the sun.
Using a unique, new experiment, scientists from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory team measured the total number of all known neutrino types reaching the Earth from the sun and confirmed with high precision that solar electron neutrinos born in the sun change their identity on their journey to Earth.
For the past year the SNO collaboration has been working on a new analysis of their data that now provides a direct measurement of the total number of solar neutrinos, including the non-electron type.

 Back-To-Back Facing Directions - Sudbury, Ontario
Scott and Benn (2001) interpreted some of the Sudbury breccias and intrusions of impact melt as the result of the collapse of the inner margin of a peak ring.
This study, in contrast, interprets structure along the southern margin of the igneous complex as the result of the collapse, overturn and overthrusting of the outer margin of the peak ring.
In older models of the Sudbury Igneous Complex, the complex was interpreted as a funnel-shaped intrusion, either endogenic or emplaced along an impact-induced fracture.
