How many fossils can you spot? When palaeontologists excavate fossils, they sometimes collect ‘matrix,’ which includes the surrounding soil and rock debris. This box of matrix contains microfossils found in Alberta. Our Education team teaches matrix sorting to seniors in our community at outreach events, and in our “Secrets of the Lost Quarry” school program. #asmr #fossilsorting #fossils #dinosaur | Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology
