IGEA II

Restoration of fossil deposits (Paleontology). The ichnological outcrops of Igea extend over a wide area, being the most interesting for its scientific value: La Cañada, Las Navas, Santa Ana, la Era del Peladillo and La Torre. The icnites of these deposits are mostly tridactyls, belonging to biped dinosaurs both theropod (carnivorous) and ornithopod (herbivorous). In addition, in the site of La Era del Peladillo they emphasize numerous ichnites attributed to two herds of dinosaurs, one of sauropods quadruped and another one of ornithopod bidactyl, all herbivorous. Work camp in the ichnological outcrops site will be developed, four hours from Monday to Friday, in the morning from 8,00 to 12,00, to avoid the hotter hours at the cost of getting up early. This schedule allows to leave a small space of time before eating to rest, go to the pool ... 1º Superficial Cleaning of the deposit of dinosaur footprints. (fragments rolled allochthonous rocks, vegetation...). 2º Conditioning and cleaning of the infrastructures associated with the deposit. 3º Filling of cracks and waterproofing of fissures. 4º Fixation of fragments of loose rock, characteristic of the deposit.
