MONTANA
The Linster Quarry, near Bynum is dated to the Two Medicine Formation (between 83 and 70 Million years old). This site is famous for the large number of Maiasaura bones discovered, but also due to the occurrence of Bambiraptor and Gorgosaurus.
The Beaver Creek Drive site is located near the town of Lewistown. It belongs to The Bear Gulch Limestone, a fossiliferous deposit dated to the Carboniferous period about 318 million years old. Many fossilized fish, plants and even sharks have been discovered in this formation.
In addition to these sites, we also maintain a lease in Eastern Montana on the Famous Hell Creek Formation.
COLORADO
Our site in the state of Colorado belongs to the Florissant Formation. It is dated to the Eocene period (34 million years old). It is a well-known formation for the numerous species that have been discovered there, especially insects, fish and plants.
