A rare dinosaur fossil has been found at the Suncor Energy mine.
While working on site, Suncor employees noticed a large lump of dirt with an odd texture and diamond patterns. Following established practice, employees halted work and sent photos of the strange sight to the Royal Tyrrell Museum.
A scientist and technician from the Museum flew to Fort McMurray early the next morning expecting to find a marine reptile fossil, because of the area's ancient history as a sea bed. When they arrived, they were amazed to discover a 110-million-year-old fossil of an ankylosaur, a rare dinosaur covered with bony plates of armour.

  • Good, but I was guessing that they should tie logs below so they don't spread, and unfortunately that's what happen! Next time hope more homework will be done.

  • Excellent
