1.
Geologists Liam Fromhyr and John Mackay spent profitable
time north of the old Gympie gold field (July 07) discovering
previously unsuspected fossil sites. |

2.
The Rammut formation limestones around Gympie are full
of corals and crinoids and are typically regarded as
Permian marine deposits. A second limestone is inter
mingled with the jurassic Tiaro coal deposits. |

3.
Our excavation has revealed beautifully preserved land
plants. This is not what you would expect given the
evolutionary long time scenario, but it is what you'd
expect given the biblical picture of Noah's Flood and
subsequent catastrophic events mixing land and sea creatures
and burying them rapidly. |

4.
The ferns were found widespread in rock that was proved
to be solid limestone by the HCL test in which a drop
of diluted HCL is placed on the stones. The results
can be seen above - it bubbled profusely. |

5. The
beautiful detail of these ferns which are coloured by
iron oxide also points to rapid burial, and denides
the normal story that limestone formed slowly in shallow
tropical seas. |

6.
The ferns include some extinct genus as well as still
existing tree ferns. Marvellous confirmation that plants
do reproduce their own kind no
matter how long they have been on planet earth. |

7.
A near by lime rich sandstone reveals what seems to
be a frond from a pine tree. |
