JTL URANIUM ROCK

JURASSIC TODILTO LIMESTONE

$35.00 & $12.80 shipping

This rock was collected at ground level

(not underground) during Sept. 2019, at the

Jurassic Canyon, located 20 miles NW of the

town of Grants NM.  As a type of limestone,

it was produced at a body of water in visible

layers. Of the several types of uranium minerals,

its layers of mineral are very visible.  When you

buy this rock, I will enclose a photocopy of a 

research article that confirms that the rock 

was produced gradually in water, during a 

time interval of thousands or millions of years.

The water body was called Ambrosia Lake,

which has been dry for millions of years. This JTL

is the main type of uranium mineral within which

radioactive dinosaur fossils are found.

The really special feature of Jurassic Todilto

Limestone is that, this is the type of uranium

rock that is most likely to contain fossils of

radioactive dinosaurs, at least when compared with

other types of uranium ore. Why is radioactivity so

likely to be found at Jurassic Canyon? The answer

is clear:  This canyon is situated in the shadow

of MOUNT TAYLOR, a long-extinct volcano that

carried radioactive uranium from deep within the

Earth, transporting this mineral to the surface

or to shallow locations near the surface. The

Mount Taylor Mine is located five miles from

Jurassic Canyon; this mine has the richest past

history of producing uranium; richest compared

with all other undeground mines in USA.  The

"Mother Lode" of the Mount Taylor Mine is at a

3,000. ft depth, and it extends horizontally for six

miles, going directly under the extinct volcano. The

Mother Lode varies from 200 ft to 600 ft thick, at

the 3,000. ft depth.  The Mount Taylor volcano

was very active from 200 million to 146 million

years ago, when this local area was inhabited by

many species of dinosaurs, including ALLOSAURUS,

"the king of radioactive dinosaurs."  The T-Rex

species, featured often in Hollywood movies, did

not inhabit this area until 50 million years later,

when the uranium volcano had become extinct, and

when much of the uranium mineral was covered

by soil. This volcano was named after U.S.

President Zachary Taylor, who followed President

James Polk, who defeated Mexico in the U.S. -

Mexican War of the late 1840s.
