    Courtown is supposed to be pretty good for fossils, but if you want to know rock types throughout the country this might help.

    You might get more answers from the palaeontology form. (go to ...Science> palaeonotolgy). The Mods are lovely.

    GSI Site walks and field trips.

    There are so many great places to find interesting rocks and minerals, but they are made all the more fascinating with a good explanation of the processes that formed them.

    The Copper Coast Geopark could be a good day out...

    Hey do you see this image with the picture of the deer at the top? That's from the museum building in Trinity College, it's a male Giant Irish Deer. Here's a picture I took of it one day before I started back at the thesis.
