Traditionally the earliest dinosaur was considered Eorapter. Examples have been found in the Ischigualasto Basin in Argentina dating from 230 million years ago.
A recent discovery of a pro-sauropod was found possibly predating this discovery in Madagascar.

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.
How does biogeography support the theory of evolution?
Biogeography is the study of the distribution of species (biology) spatially (geography) and temporally (history).

Fossils are important to Alberta because you can learn more about the history. Alberta is home to Dinosaur Provincial Park, as well as the Tyrrell Museum. This area provides the province with valuable tourism dollars. Fossils are also important because with them scientists are able to learn what the climate in this region was like millions of years ago, giving them insight as to what the climate may be like in the future. Another reason fossils are important is because as their name implies that is what 'fossil fuels' are made of.
