Paleobiologists from the US National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) in Washington, DC, and the University of Bristol in the UK identified an extraordinary collection of extinct plants, including club mosses that were over a meter thick and reached heights of more than 40 meters. The fossils were located nearly 100 meters below the surface at the Riola and Vermilion Grove mines in Vermilion County, Illinois.
The forest was encased in mud 300 million years ago when a major earthquake or similar catastrophic event caused the entire area to abruptly sink below sea level. The ancient forest was preserved on a layer of coal, and when miners extracted the coal, the fossilized forest was revealed on the mine’s ceiling."
Is like lgtv+ I have nothing to prove, nothing in my head, nobody cares what I do in my bedroom, but I have blue and green hair.
This is Nepal. I have nothing but a big mountain with a few monks on it, but I don't put myself in line with the world. I am independent and I keep 15 minutes for a masturbation.
Yeah, well the French and English engineers building the channel tunnel did not think our antiquated system of measurement was stupid....after they figured out the two side were not going to meet and called us to fix it.
Bash my country if you want,, it just makes you petty and small.
Thanks for the into into your stupidity just because YOU refuse to understand something doesn't mean you can belittle it.
