In which Rattles discusses the logistics of fighting with a Snugglebug and I also should point out, I’m not actually going to do any fighting with it in the story. If it hepls, the Bug is always next to my head and the staff is wedged between the bedpost and wall.

Okay kiddes, honest opinions. In this final comic, I need to pick up something I own as a weapon. You have two choices.

Destroy things with my ~~curtain rod~~ STAFF OF DESTINY

OR

Launch them into death by cuteness via SNUGGLEBUG SWARM.

The STAFF or the SNUGGLEBUG?

Opalized Fossils

These are no ordinary fossils (if there is such a thing): these incredible relics are made of solid opal, sometimes with rainbows of shimmering color. Australia is the only place on Earth where opalized animal fossils are found. These fossils are of global scientific interest and are among the most beautiful and valuable in the world.

How do opalized fossils form?

Opal forms in cavities within rocks. If a cavity has formed because a bone, shell or pine cone was buried in the sand or clay that later became the rock, and conditions are right for opal formation, then the opal forms a fossil replica of the original object that was buried. We get opalized fossils of two kinds:

i. Internal details not preserved: Opal starts as a solution of silica in water. If the silica solution fills an empty space left by a shell, bone etc that has rotted away - like jelly poured into a mould - it may harden to form an opalized cast of the original object. Most opalized shell fossils are ‘jelly mould’ fossils - the outside shape is beautifully preserved, but the opal inside doesn’t record any of the creature’s internal structure.

ii. Internal details preserved: If the buried organic material hasn’t rotted away and a silica solution soaks into it, when the silica hardens it may form an opal replica of the internal structure of the object. This happens sometimes with wood or bone.
