Chinanews, Guiyang, Feb. 26 – In order to protect rich fossil remains1, Guizhou provincial2 government encourages local institutions and individuals to set up their own fossil museums.
Guizhou is a place well-known for its karst landform and is dubbed3 as the kingdom of fossil remains in China. So far, people have discovered four places in Guizhou where large clusters of fossils are unearthed4. They are located in Guanling County, Xingyi City, Weng’an County and Kaili City.
On March 1, a regulation on geoenvironmental management in Guizhou will be published. The regulation stipulates5 that fossil museums or institutions that collect and preserve fossils should set up a filing system to keep a record of their collections and report the information to county-level administrative6 bodies.
In order to curb7 fossil trafficking, which has become a very serious problem in the province in recent years, the regulation has made clauses on the excavation8, collection, scientific use, shipping9 and export, and exploration and assessment10 of fossils. It also states the legal liabilities of people and institutions that collect or preserve fossils. The regulation forbids any individuals or institutions to excavate11 or trade fossils without the government’s approval.
