Highway service zone construction suspended after fossil discovery in southwest China

KUNMING (Xinhua): Construction of a highway service zone in southwest China's Yunnan Province has been suspended after paleontological fossils were discovered at the site.

The fossils were discovered at the construction site of a service area in the Malong District of the city of Qujing, when a fossil collector revealed in late November that rubble at this site possibly contained fossils of ancient creatures.
