Best Answer

The paleontologist would probably find sedimentary rock, but if you mean like a specific type of rock like a limestone or something the paleontologist would find hundreds of different types of rocks not just one type.

What is the maximum depth at which fossils are found in the earth's crust?

They are mostly found on, or very near, the surface. They have probably been quite deeply buried at some point ( a lot can happen in, say, 70 million years) but due to tectonic movements and erosion, they finish up where we can find them. If all the Jurassic rocks were buried at about 300m, then our knowledge of dinosaurs would be impressively small.
