Shamalama Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 wow! Great series of finds, Gery. Lucky that the worker was there to help. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers.

astron Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hi Gery, I am really amazed so with the quantity, as with the quality of your finds Congratulations I guess it's about one of the best trips of yours, if not the best... If not, please correct me... I wonder what happens with the prep. Where necessary, it seems to be a hard task on one hand, but on the other hand it may reveal some new finds??? Astrinos P. Damianakis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nala Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hi Astrinos,Thanks! on the coal heap,yes it's my best,most of the work was already make! Most of the job was already make by the bulldozer,no need to dig ,just open the eyes,sometimes open the block,the bag was full of nice plants very fast,hope to go back soon.About the prep,most of the blocks were open and divided on the site itself(sometimes,you broke nice pieces and other time you discover nice one) ,it's possible to divide more , and find new imprints but you take the risk to broke the one you have already found and obtain many small parts instead of a big one.I just divided few pieces and have few good surprises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
