DESCRIPTION

These pictures of minerallized soft-tissue are salt-brined and preserved from the mesozoic sediments. They are table scraps from dinosaur feeding activity. These rocks and stones are the same we buy to decorate our yards. Beach pebbles and river rocks also were once creation .

A Discovery Madeby

The Secret Life of Rocks: Forensic Paleobiology Rocks and stones have always been known as minerals that broke away from a mountain by some action or force of nature, find their way to some raging river, and over time are smoothed and shaped. The composition, color and shape always intrigue people of every race and culture. We use them for our enjoyment; to just look at for personal adornment, beautify our yards, build walls, use in the building of homes, etc.

However, the rocks I am talking about are tiny like a beach pebble and some are larger than the strongest man can pick up. These rocks appear to be a shape found in creation; such as a heart, eye, or some other body part. These rocks have been brought to geologists and paleontologists and, seeming to be an anomaly, labeled pseudo-fossils, mud rocks, etc. With no bones to pick at, these scientists are quick to dismiss them as nothing but rocks. For some reason this just made me more curious.

The preservation of soft-tissue is thought to be a very rare occurrence, especially sixty-five million year old stuff, but, I believe I have discovered the initial mechanism for preservation.

Before being buried, salt brining in hot Mesozoic seas replaced the moisture before soft burial. Neutral buoyancy kept everything three-dimensional. After being buried down deep, other minerals replace the salt. The book Mineralogy, by John Sinkankas, was the only source from which I was able to understand this process. Mineral replacement takes place under pressure and heat. Hydrothermal activity near contact areas injects heavy metals, which are known to be associated with fossils.

The eyeballs have a hidden structure when raw, but show layering or banding when petrified, and look sedimentary. All of these materials are mostly partials of the whole as they were being sliced from the claws of dinosaur meat eaters. These raptors had their food in their hands and claws to the hilt but had to shed the last piece or bite their claw. These dropped pieces became mineralized soft-tissue.

Some of the first rocks I collected were traced to just below the largest mercury mine in the west. Some of the stones are being quarried and cemented into the infrastructure and who knows if they are radioactive or not. Ground water contamination seems to be on the rise world wide, especially in India. Could the aggregate for the cement be high-grade arsenic ore? More profound aspects to this discovery keep surfacing as I continue to research these rocks.

These same researchers and geologists who have brought the Mesozoic era to life for dinosaur lovers the world over, could benefit greatly from this new knowledge. I took geology and believed also what is still being taught in school. My major studies were in biology and art, which anatomy is a very big part.

I cannot tell the whole story right here and now., however, this will suffice as an introduction.
