Oceanic side of the Aleutian trench.
You would need to drill in areas of the oceanic crust that are older and have not been heavily altered, such as in the Pacific Ocean basin. Places like the Hess Deep Rift and the Pito Deep in the Eastern Pacific are potential sites for recovering samples of Jurassic age basalts. These areas could provide valuable insights into the formation and evolution of the oceanic crust.
Other than abundant matching fossils and sedimentary rock on opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean and the apparent puzzle piece appearance of the continents on either side of the Atlantic, there is the presence of the mid-oceanic ridges, areas where new oceanic crust is created. The magnetic orientation of the basaltic oceanic crust as it forms is the mirror image of the magnetic orientation of the basaltic oceanic crust on the other side of the ridge, indicating that the seafloor is spreading in both directions away from ridge. Additionally, the dating of rock on the ocean floor has shown that oceanic crust and overlying sediment become progressively younger as the mid-ocean ridge is approached.And finally, accurate measurements have been made by global positioning devices which verify that seafloor spreading is occurring.
The first step in comparing soil samples is to collect representative samples from each location. Ensure that samples are taken consistently and are handled carefully to maintain their integrity for accurate comparison.
Scientists prove seafloor spreading through various methods, including mapping of magnetic stripes on the ocean floor, analysis of seismic activity, and examination of rock samples collected from the ocean crust. These techniques provide evidence of tectonic plate movement and the creation of new oceanic crust at mid-ocean ridges.
Paleomagnetic stripes on either side of mid-ocean ridges demonstrate the symmetric pattern of magnetic reversals found in oceanic crust, supporting the idea of seafloor spreading. Age dating of oceanic crust samples reveals that the further away from mid-ocean ridges, the older the crust gets, providing direct evidence for the continuous creation of new seafloor at spreading centers.

They recover rock samples from volcanic eruptions.
Convergence supports the theory of seafloor spreading. Samples of the deep ocean floor are evidence of seafloor spreading because the basaltic oceanic crust and overlapping sediment become younger as the mid-ocean ridge is approached. Also, the rock that makes up the floor of the ocean is younger than the continents.

Yeah, but you couldn't go Jurassic park and clone one

Rock samples of the ocean floor can be acquired through various methods such as deep-sea drilling or collecting samples using submersibles or remotely operated vehicles. Scientists also study samples brought up during underwater volcanic eruptions or through natural processes like landslides and fault movements. These samples provide valuable insights into the composition and history of the oceanic crust.
If you were lucky enough to get to visit the Jurassic, you'd want to locate and photograph as many prehistoric animals, including dinosaurs, as possible. You'd also want to make detailed observations regarding their behavior and diet. If you could get DNA samples, they would also be a huge advantage to the scientific community,
Composite cone The hallmark of a composite cone composition is the mixture of cinder cone characteristics (granitic debris, very steep cone profile, and explosive eruptions) with shield cone characteristics (large footprint with gently sloping sides, basaltic debris, and lava flows).
In "Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis," you can clone dinosaurs by using the DNA samples you collect. First, ensure you have a functioning DNA lab and enough power. Then, access the lab, select a dinosaur species, and use the acquired DNA to create the clone. Once the cloning process is complete, you can release the dinosaur into your park.
samples of them
Core samples would reveal that the further from the mid-ocean ridge you go, the greater the overlying sediment on top of the basaltic crust. This would indicate that the crust closer to the ridge was younger and more recently formed. The creation of new crust at mic-ocean ridges is the crucial evidence for the movement of tectonic plates.
