1. Current Hotspots
There are definitely spots around the world that are considered hotspots for dinosaur fossils, and right now palaeontologists are having huge success in Argentina and China. Desert environments are best for finding fossils because they aren’t covered in plant matter and can be easily excavated. The best areas have layers of silt and clay, trapping the fossilised bones in between and they usually locate the right areas by aging the rocks to make sure they were around during the dinos.
