Unearthing at Dusk

As the sun sets over the dig sites, enjoy an unforgettable afternoon of discovery and outback hospitality.

Includes: Digging at Dusk Tour, Sausage Sizzle & Drink at Sunset

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?

The full tour typically takes around 2 hours, although guests are welcome to stay longer at the fossil hunting sites if they wish. This will include a short 10 minute drive (in your own vehicle) and a brief site induction and discussion about the proper fossil collection techniques.

WHEN AND WHERE DOES THE TOUR LEAVE?

Tours will start in the foyer of Kronosaurus Korner at 3.00pm. These times will help avoid the heat of the day. Our guide will greet participants at Kronosaurus Korner and will help direct people to the Fossil Hunting Sites.

KRONOSAURUS KORNER WILL PROVIDE GUESTS WITH:

Hand lenses – to look at fossils under magnification.

Brushes – for removing dirt from hidden fossils.

Superglue – to fix broken fossils that may otherwise deteriorate during transit.

Geology hammers, crack hammers, chisels and pry bars – to break or separate layers of rock (for adults only).

(Note: Some of these tools are also available for purchase at the museum.)

DO WE NEED TO BRING ANYTHING?

Water, closed in footwear, hat, camp chair & sense of adventure
