About Cleveland Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry

Industrial Facilities, Mineshafts, Interesting Places

Cleveland Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry (slov. Clevelandov Lloydov kameňolom dinosaurov) je chránené územie v štáte Utah v USA. Má rozlohu 721 akrov a za národnú prírodnú pamiatku bolo vyhlásené v roku 1965.

Pred približne 145 miliónmi rokov tu existovalo bahenné jazero, ktoré sa stávalo „pascou“ pre živočíchov (najmä dinosaurov). Podľa vedcov je za jeho vytvorením zodpovedná sopka z formujúcich sa Skalnatých vrchov, ktorá svojim výbuchom vychrlila množstvá jemného popolčeka, ktorý sa zhromaždil v miestnom jazere a dal tak vzniknúť mase lepkavého bahna.
