Behind a Shopping Centre in New Jersey, Signs of a Mass Extinction
"MANTUA TOWNSHIP, N.J. — Behind a Lowe’s home improvement store here, scientists are methodically scraping and sifting through a quarry pit that may contain unique insights to the mass extinction that eliminated the dinosaurs."
This is a bit late, I know (article published on 4th of January) but this is quite big as far as paleontology goes.
So far, all the fossil beds found show are formed via some natural phenomenon .i.e flash flooding, landslides, sandstorms, etc, but to have a fossil bed that can be linked to the actual KT Extinction? That's quite big.
Although, I don't why, but the fact it's in New Jersey, I find quite funny. Don't why. Probably because of how the American media seems to treat New Jersey.

And please, before we begin: please, do not talk about the Flood or anything to do with the Bible or Young Earth Creationism. Let's just talk about the actual article and what it says.
