A total of 43 dinosaur egg fossils have been discovered in a construction site of Heyuan city, Guangdong province on April 19, 2015.

The fossils were discovered in the ground outside a hotel, where digging had been going on for road-mending. The 43 eggs were stuck into 14 fossils, among which 19 eggs were intact.

The eggs were comparatively large, one was even with a diameter of 13 cm, according to Du Yuanli, curator of the local dinosaur museum.

He Yuan city, with the remains of dinosaur eggs, bones and footprints, is worthy of the name “Home of dinosaurs”. The site where the 43 eggs were unearthed was found to be the rock strata of red sandstone, tallying with the environment where the dinosaur egg fossils exist, Du said.

“Chances are that other egg fossils might be found elsewhere in the city, I hope that the workers and residents could pay more attention during construction, and inform the police immediately once any fossil is discovered,” Du added.
