17th November - BRLSI Geology Collection & Ilminster Project

Speaker: Matt Williams - Curator of the Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institute Museum, 7:30pm
Matt Williams will give us insights into the collections of the BRLSI, Charles Moore (the principal collector of the palaeontological collection) and the JESBI (Jurassic Ecosystem of Strawberry Bank Ilminster) project which launched in March. In this exciting project, over 230 perfectly preserved fossils, excavated from a quarry at Strawberry Bank by Charles Moore in the 1840s, are set to be examined for the first time as part of the Jurassic Ecosystem.
This talk will now take place in the G8 Lab, Wills Memorial Building, University of Bristol, BS8 1RJ. Contact Bristol Naturalists' Society for further details.
