Field properties of the quarry[1]

Post Quarry is a site located in Garza County, Texas. The Post Quarry yields an assemblage of bones from the Upper Triassic likely dating from 220 and 215 ma.[2] containing bones from multiple taxa including the most well known rauisuchid named Postosuchus.[1] The site was named after the Post Town in Texas, named after C. W. Post.[3] There has been rare finds of dinosauriforms discovered in the quarry being both non dinosaurian dinosauriforms and early dinosaurs.[4]
