Plans:

Stratum: making confirmation on the limit of bottom and top of Zhangxia stage of Mountain A according to stratum Ancient biology: search for fossil of trilobite

The temperature in Jinan is between -8 and -1 today. At last, I have to transfer cars and go to my destination on jumping bus. It is admirable to see the fossil of Beijing while driving to searching for fossils.

At the foot of the mountain, I discover that there are a large number of landslides on the upper side of ε2x with detritus on the ground. It is lucky that it is at the lower side of ε2x. it can be seen clearly on the picture.

The famous bread-like and amaranth shale adds up together like book pages. They face to the sun. I took a picture of them to show off them. The season wind for hundreds of years on ancient Eerduosi road shaped the bread-like shale in the North China shallow sea in Cambrian.

Wonderful! I discover the glauconite which should appear in stratum easily. I stayed at the landslide for more than an hour. Many villagers were so curious that they wonder what our purpose is. After popularization of science, I went on with my trip.

The grand grey limestone was formed thickly in the deep ocean. Some of them belong to slate with the color of white and impurity of sea mud.

In the cold winter, the first thing after I reached the section was to boil water with simple stove.

It is certain that I harvested a lot and I discovered X fossils within one hour. The quality of many fossils is good, so I did not have the heart to knock it down to bring back and I just took back some smaller ones.
