In 2011, a mine worker in Alberta noticed odd lumps in the rock and accidentally unearthed a perfectly preserved 110-million-year-old armoured dinosaur

A routine day at an Alberta oil sands mine led to an extraordinary discovery: Borealopelta markmitchelli, an armored dinosaur preserved with its skin, scales, and armor intact. This exceptionally complete fossil, found in marine sandstone, offers an unprecedented glimpse into the animal's appearance, diet, and the ancient Cretaceous environment.
