Collecting Fossils

Join our Adult program on "Collecting Fossils," where you will learn the essential techniques for proper fossil collection that preserves their scientific value. This program, led by retired paleontologist Dan Krisher, will cover the crucial steps involved in fossil collecting, including excavation, preservation, documentation of physical location and surrounding rock layers, and field labeling. Participants will also gain insights into post-discovery processes such as cleaning, permanent labeling, cataloging, and secure long-term storage. Ensure your fossils remain a valuable resource for future generations by understanding these vital practices. Register here: greecepl.librarycalendar.com/event/hold-fossil-program-55225.
