Bask in the beauty of Georgian Bay's shores at Big Tub Harbour and Burnt Point, where dolostone formations tell ancient tales of life through intricate patterns and fossilized treasures. Sunrise paints the waters with hues of gold, reflecting off the shimmering dolomite rocks. Delve deeper into the past with a peek into stalactite caverns, formed from the same mineral, as seen in 'The World's Foundations' or 'Geology for Beginners'. Witness the fossilized remains of ammonites, bivalves, fish, and more, preserved in the dolostone at Fathom Five National Marine Park. From the shores of Ontario, Canada, to the mines of Guanajuato, Mexico, dolostone's unique properties as a magnesium ore continue to captivate and inspire.
