24 October to 31 January

Large fossil.JPGDiscover the fascinating world of fossils! New Zealand Fossils: Dead Precious! shows how these strange and exquisitely beautiful treasures not only tell us about our land’s past, but can also predict its future. Fossils are time capsules that record details of ancient environments, and are also valuable tools for the scientific exploration of climate change, evolution, and oil and gas deposits.

These other-worldly, long-dead creatures have emerged from the dark earth to live again, and tell us their stories.
