ONTARIO' PAGE NINE Keith Collyer of Wingharn, formerly: of LuctOlow made an interesting find during the past , few months and only , recently learned of its real significance. While he was taking stones on a Le'opold Street property he spotted an orntsual.. stone and because he has prey:: iously'c9llected peculiar rock formations,fie took this Speeimen home. On closer examination he ;found what appeared to. -be a stotit rep - lica of. a piece of animal horn running through the centre ol 'second 'type of.rook. In order to. get more informatiorie,about his find'he sent the stone along to .. Jim Henderson of LuCknoW-1 'who is a student at the University of Guelph. The Earth Science 'Department at the university'contacted Keith to ask his perprnisSio,n to cut off a portion of the inner , „ "horn", section of the specimen for,analysis.•., Th stone 'was 'returned to Keith a _week or so ago along • with a letter frOm Jim Which • said-.„ "Your fossil is some' type of.,,, hormcoral. It is froth the PaleOz-, • . Keith ''Cionyer • findOtoneAfficji6 . . Sofft Years Old, Jim ..HendersostAssistiliThi Research Oic era , probably f torn the Devon- ian or Silurian period. "That means your fossil is in excess of 300 million years old. Horn corals are usually conical in thape_but this one has been deform ed.whileogrowing, which results in its 'flattened shape. • - "The Ea'rth Science (duelph) Department kept the small 'piece cut off the end. doing to confuse some paleontology with it." The Paleozoic E'a. referred to in the letter 'is the 'scientific designa - tion for a very early period in the world's geolo gical history and the Devonian and. Silurian periods are two of the .time diviSions Of the PaleozOic -era. The fact that the inner stone was identified as alorm of. coral wbuld indicate that it waifortned when this part of the world had a ,tropical' climate in which coral insects could survive. It his\ been established that such a climate did 'prevail in Canada at one time , for various forms of coral. as well as the skeletons of tropiCal . _ animals and .fish have been dis7 covered considerably farther north than Wingham'.
