I limited myself to $10 and still came home with six mineral specimens,goes to show there are bargains galore at these events. The Moroccan government have done a wonderful job in regulating their fossil industry, however China and Sth America have a way to go to stop thieving. This is important because once the provenance of a fossil is lost then so too is its meaning and context (not to mention value).Dylanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06632657395095391104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5388608827926699865.post-60432144640273059292012-05-21T12:15:12.363+10:002012-05-21T12:15:12.363+10:00Thanks Sunshine, it certainly was great... like a ...Thanks Sunshine, it certainly was great... like a kid in a lolly shop!Rodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10962789743908134314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5388608827926699865.post-7373831825860598152012-05-21T10:49:35.580+10:002012-05-21T10:49:35.580+10:00Must have been a great day out.
