Jurassic Canyon Nm: Embroidered Cloth and similar items

"JURASSIC CANYON" EMBROIDERED IRON-ON / SEW-ON PATCH A New Mexico Mining Location with Real Dinosaur Fossils $9.50 each plus $1.00 shipping JURASSIC CANYON is a high-elevation (6600 ft) mining area located 22 miles NW of Grants NM, in North/Central New Mexico. It lies in the shadow, four miles away, from a long-extinct volcano, Mount Taylor. During the Jurassic era, 200 million to 146 million years ago, active rocks were lifted from deep underground and were spewed onto the canyon area. The mined minerals of the canyon were Jurassic Todilto Limestone, Carnotite,Uraninite, Coffinite, and Tyuyamunite. The mines were abandoned in 1989, but are likely soon to be restored because of rising mineral prices worldwide. The canyon was heavily populated with many ancient species of dinosaurs, especially with ALLOSAURUS, a large dinosaur predator that dominated New Mexico for 60 million years.The Allosaurus theropod carnivorous species is known as the "King of the Radioactive Dinosaurs." The Allosaurus was long extinct before the T-Rex appeared in New Mexico 70 million years ago, shortly before the asteroid impact killed off all existing dinosaurs. The Allosaurus and Tyrannosaurus Rex dinosaur species never encountered each other at the Jurassic Canyon location. My hobby, as a retired college professor, is rockhounding: I have collected rocks at Jurassic Canyon with 35 multi-day trips there since 2014. In my early rockhounding trips I visited the canyon alone, but during the past seven years I have had others with me. I need others because the canyon has large rattlesnakes. I fear that if I suffered a snake bite, I might be unable to drive the car to the nearest hospital at Grants, 22 miles from the Canyon. A companion could drive the car instead of the snakebite victim. TV SERIES: THE DINO HUNTERS This video series of hour-long shows began in 2010 on the Discovery-Science TV channel. Two seasons of 60min shows have already been aired; the third season of new programs will be aired beginning in July this year. The series staff are cowboy types mainly from Montana and Wyoming; they search for dinosaur fossils on private lands, which they then sell to natural history museums. Two episodes of DINO HUNTERS were based at the Abercrombie Ranch in eastern New Mexico, focusing on the Woolly Mammoth fossils that were recovered there. Soon, I will invite that series' producers to do a 60min episode at Jurassic Canyon. This canyon's fossils differ from those found elsewhere, because they are affected by the activity of the minerals that exist in the canyon. Two photos near the end of the picture series show two small radioactive fossilized dinosaur skulls that I found at the canyon in June 2021, most likely these are juvenile veociraptor skulls. The LAST PHOTOS show a large dinosaur bone fossil, recovered from active mined minerals, being displayed at the New Mexico Mining Museum, at downtown Grants NM. JURASSIC CANYON EMBROIDERED CLOTH PATCHES These are available with either of two background colors: RED or YELLOW. The patches are genuine embroidered cloth: They can be ironed-on, or sewn- on. On my own brown prospecting shirts, I have my seamstress do both methods for attaching the patch to the shirt's cloth. On Ebay, there are many ads for patches for the "Jurassic Park" six-movie series. The big difference between Jurassic Park and Jurassic Canyon is that Jurassic Park is a fictional movie series, whereas Jurassic Canyon is a real location in New Mexico, which was inhabited during the ancient Jurassic era by real dinosaurs! The New Mexico Museum of Natural History at Albuquerque even claims that many dinosaur species were only found here, NOT in other states or countries. One of the five minerals mined at the canyon, Jurassic Todilto Limestone, is found there and at no other locations worldwide. Among other papers I will enclose with your cloth patch, I will send a photocopy of a scientific paper I wrote about the JTL mineral rock. This mineral type is unique because it is the rock type that is most likely to contain dinosaur fossils, at this site. At the end of my photo series, you will see the two small juvenile velociraptor dinosaur fossils that I found at the canyon, in June 2021. Wikipedia claims that the Jurassic Canyon movies exaggerated the size of velociraptors; the movies portrayed these dinosaurs as being 6-8 ft tall; actually, the adult velociraptor dinos were merely the size of large dogs.
