The excavation now covers an area several Olympic swimming
pools in size. |
|
 |
| 2.
Our outdoor museum site has become a place for students,
primary and highschool, to learn excavation techniques
and to see the results of God's awesome judgement on the
earth. |
|
 |
| 3.
Continued work at the first site exposes reveals even
more logs at greater depths. |
|
 |
| 4.
There's plenty of hard work for adult volunteers. |
|
 |
| 5. Your
donations support the cost of the excavation machinery,
so we can really dig deep. |
|
 |
| 6.
A little further work reveals two more logs where only
one was originally visible. |
|
 |
| 7.
Adults take over from young students who found this log
and look what happens next! |
|
 |

After washing the find, it turns out to be another snapped
off log. More evidence of catastrophic upheaval and rapid
burial. |

This year we brought in the heavy duty equipment with
high pressure sprayers, but the next bit surprised even
us. |
|
 |
| 10.
The log just kept getting bigger as we excavated. |
|
 |
| 11.
We have a long way to go on this one, but many of these
are proving to be huge pine trees. |

Geologist Liam Fromyhr removes surface material with a
high pressure sprayer. |
|
 |

This technology certainly speeds up the
excavation and reveals well preserved materials. |
|
 |
| 14.
Two separate logs are starting to take
shape. |
|
|
 |
| 16.
Complete excavation of this piece reveals a section of
log a metre long and a half across, snapped at both ends,
with bark removed and a tiny segment of a different tree
snapped off right beside it. There can be no doubt of
the catastrophic violence involved in this deposit, and
there can be no that these rapidly buried trees are no
help to the vast ages concept. Neither is there any help
here for the theory of evolution. Southern or Auricarian
pine trees, such as the Wollemi, have certainly produced
their own kind as Genesis says God created things to do. |
