The deepest fossil ever found is a marine creature called a Xenoturbella, discovered at a depth of 2.4 miles in the Pacific Ocean near Japan.
The deepest fossil ever found is a marine microorganism called a foraminifera, discovered in a deep-sea trench in the Pacific Ocean. This finding is significant in paleontology because it provides insights into the evolution and adaptation of life in extreme environments, as well as the history of Earth's oceans.
The deepest fossils ever found are microbial fossils discovered in rocks from the ocean floor, known as serpentinized peridotites, in the Samail Ophiolite in Oman.
The oldest rock of terrestrial origin (i.e. the whole rock was formed here on Earth at the same time) is the Nuvvuagittuq greenstone in Canada. It has been dates as 4.28 billion years old. The oldest single thing yet found that is known to have been formed on Earth is a zircon crystal which was located in Western Australia within a metamorphic gneiss which was part of the Narryer Gneiss Terrane. It has been dated at 4.404 Ga (4.404 billion years old) however the rock it is in is younger than this. The oldest rock ever found on Earth is actually a meteorite so was not formed here. It is estimated to have an age of around 4.56 billion years so is roughly the same age as the Earth.
There is no nugget known as the 'Welcome Home' gold nugget. There are two famous nuggets with "Welcome" in their name.The "Welcome Stranger" was the name given to a largest gold nugget ever found and recorded. It measured 61 cm by 31 cm and was discovered by John Deason and Richard Oates at Moliagul, western Victoria, Australia on 5 February 1869 about 9 miles north-west of Dunolly and half-way between Maryborough and St Arnaud.The Welcome Stranger is not the same as the "Welcome Nugget" found in Ballarat in 1858 which was the largest single nugget prior to the discovery of the Welcome Stranger.
The deepest fossil ever found is a marine creature called a Xenoturbella, discovered at a depth of 2.4 miles in the Pacific Ocean near Japan.

The oldest known dinosaur is Eoraptor. It was found in Argentina and dates to about 231.4 million years ago.
The oldest bones ever found are approximately 300 million years old and belong to a species called Ossirarus kamylaris. These bones were discovered in 2004 in Texas, USA.
The Oldest Dinosaur fossil ever found was a omniraptor, and it walked on two legs.
The oldest cannabis fossil dates back to around 28 million years ago, found in the Tibetan plateau. It indicates that cannabis has been around for millions of years.
The oldest known fossils are from Greenland and date back to 3850 million years ago. They are of stromatolites which are clumps of a fungus like form that dominated the early shallow seas
The Oldest known dinosaurs fossils are prosauropods found in Madagascar. They date to about 230 Million Years Ago in the Late Triassic Period. It was from the same family of dinosaurs that became Apatasaurus and Diplodocus. Previous to this the oldest dinosaur was a Eoraptor found in Argentina. This dates back to about 228 Million Years.
