Nawahi is a crater on Mercury. Nawahi crater is located within the large Caloris impact basin. The unusual dark material creating a halo around Nawahi makes this crater of special interest, as the dark material likely represents rocks with a different chemical and mineralogical composition than those of the neighboring surface.^[1]
