Re: [fossilclubgroup] Re: AUSTRALIAN MESOZOIC FISH FOSSILS
Dear Reswob, thanks for your email. Esspecially in exploration companies, there is no money to fund projects (e.g. The project I have been working on). With big companies some are firing people, others like xstrata here in town just are not putting any new staff on. The good news is that its expected to pick up faster then it all happened, which is good news.
The fossils found include fish bits and pieces from Richmond, Trilobites from Mount Isa and Ammonites / belemnites from Hughenden.
Check out www.atnh.blogspot.com its my blog, theres a few fossil related stuff there.
All the best
Rodney

Hi Rodney,
What fossils did you find?
Is the situation amongst geologists really that bad now? I've been
studying geology in university and the aspect of everything seems to
have flipped in it's head. When I started my degree they were all
talking economic geology up; there was a shortage of graduates and
they were waving a carrot of a %75,000 per annum wage for graduates
fresh out of honours. Now, as I approach the end of my degree we are
in this economic downturn and Rio Tinto (who was one of the most
aggressive recruiter in the university) is cutting a lot of people
adrift.
Regards,
Reswob
