Re: [dinosaur] The most promising fossiliferous localities in the world

[Thomas Richard Holtz <tholtz@umd.edu>]

Long term, exposures in Greenland and Antarctica currently covered by ice.

But many of the places you mentioned are promising, as are areas known to produce dinosaur-aged terrestrial fossils but only preliminarily explored (e.g., some sites in Chile, eastern Africa, Uzbekistan & Kazakhstan, etc.) ÂAnd really, sometime it is just the less-explored parts of the same region (i.e., the current work in various parts of Utah are highly productive recently.)

Good day! I would like to ask, what in your opinion are the most promising yet unexplored localities for dinosaur discoveries in the world? Far-east Russia, Antarctica, India and Pakistan, Central America or some other places with preserved Mesozoic terrestrial sediments? Thank you in advance! Tom
