CONSTRUCTION workers in China have unearthed several dinosaur eggs believed to be 130 million-years-old.
They were preparing to build a school in Jiangxi province when they discovered 20 black shells underneath the soil, reports The Sun.
Experts claim they go back to the cretaceous period which dates between 145 million and 66 million years ago.
Photos of the remarkable find appear to show the 2mm thick eggs to be in tact though further tests are needed.
Construction was halted while scientists recovered the eggs to test their veracity.
Perfectly preserved dinosaur eggs found
Very cool.
