La actividad de divulgación por las tierras aragonesas de los aragosaureros se multiplica. Este próximo sábado, nuestro aragosaurero José Ignacio Canudo va a presentar el libro “Los dinosaurios de las Cuencas Mineras” en Josa (Teruel) a las 11horas en el Ayuntamiento. En el acto dará una charla divulgativa para explicar las partes más importantes del libro, dando especial importancia a los descubrimientos que ha hecho el grupo Aragosaurus en los yacimientos del Cretácico Inferior de esta localidad. El acto está organizado por la Comarca de las Cuencas Mineras y al final del mismo habrá un pequeño ágape y un visita guiada del Museo Paleontológico de Josa.
