Breve descrizione:
\n<\/strong>Today’s tropical scenery can help us imagine what Duidduru might have been like in the Miocene; the stratigraphy of the site and the richness of the fossils present are some elements that make the site interesting from a scientific point of view.<\/p>\n

Fossil finds from the quarry<\/strong>
\nThe fossils present in the area date back to the Miocene; the finds belong to marine animal species that still live in tropical shallow waters.<\/p>\n

Their fossilization occurred by mineralization, and thanks to the sandstone the fossils have been preserved in an excellent way.<\/p>\n

Some artifacts have been collected and studied; after a cleaning process by the paleontologists of the Superintendence for Archaeological Heritage of Sassari and Nuoro, the fossils can be admired in the P.AR.C.<\/p>\n
