I don't think gp was questioning that, so much as the likelihood of finding more than one fossil from the same event, given all the times we could have found fossils from.
- justsid 4y agoWouldn’t this single event have a super high chance of generating fossils though giving that a) it wiped out a ton of life in one go and b) it released a huge amount of debris ready to cover things up nicely and preserve them?
- ncmncm 4y agoYes. What was incredibly lucky was the fossil stratum being exposed again at a time when we could spot them. There must be megatons more of this stuff, wholly inaccessible.
