Hi everyone,

I was wondering if there were any other members from Perth WA.

Cheers.

Good luck!

Fellow Aussie here, but alas I'm from the other side of the country too.

I'd be interested to hear what kinds of fossils you find over there though.

Yeah, what do you want to find? I could try to research some places in WA

Thanks everyone,

I am not trying to find anything in particular, just wanted to find any other like minded people in WA to perhaps go hunting with.

I have a couple of sites that I like to visit here there is a good Permian deposit at fossil cliff near Mingenew but that's a thousand Km round trip for me.

And closer to home is Gingin that has a Cretaceous chalk deposit. Both were marine environments.

If anyone has any other locations they know of, I would be very grateful for any info though. I am in Perth.

Cheers

Hi everyone, sorry for the not so prompt response.

Thanks for your help and interest.

I will keep you all informed, looks like I am the only WA participant on the site then.

My wife was right then :-)

Hi,

If you don’t mind where is the place in Gingin?

[The_Hammer_1987 0]

Park where the marker is and walk up The that quarry with the big water tank thingy. It’s private property, I’ve never met the owners but I’m told they don’t mind.

Please be respectful and don’t leave rubbish and all that jazz. :))

We are heading to Gingin today in the motorhome. First time hunting for us!
