3D laser scanning showed out that there are very thin clay laminas between the 5-8 cm thick, so called "footprint sandstone" beds. Due to these fine structures, the layers could preserve the inchnofossils of not just vertebrates but of worms and insects as well. A new interpretation window has opened to the reconstruction of the 20-17 million year-old wetland habitat.
The Bükk National Park Directorate has been working on the extension of the site's innovated interpretation methods of the geological past. For further research encouraged by the sensational finds it will apply for funds to the Government of Hungary. Since the site is the main gateway to the transborder Novohrad-Nógrád Geopark any development of it can contribute to the geotourism of the region, both on the Slovak and Hungarian side.
