Luizi is a meteorite crater that lies on the Kundelungu Plateau of the Katanga province, in an underexplored region of southeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. The crater, ~17 kilometer in diameter, is visible from satellite imagery, and has recently been confirmed as being caused by a large impact event. This complex meteorite impact crater is the first one to be recognized in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and even in the whole Central Africa.
