 100 million year old dinosaur fossils found in Australia
Fossils of an Australian dinosaur dating back more than 100 million years have been found at an Australian archeological site first explored in the 1930s.
The bones are believed to be from the Austrosaurus mckillopi beast and were found in northwest Queensland, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported on Friday.

Queensland dinosaur museum curator Dr Timothy Holland said worker Henry Burgoyne Wade stumbled across some fragments of backbone in 1932. The bones were then sent to the Queensland Museum and experts realized they were quite different from all other fossils that had come from the site area before.

Now it has been announced more fossil bones have been discovered at the same site.
