For the fifth edition of the Quarry Life Award, five International Jury members have been nominated to assess the projects for International Awards. They will work simultaneously with the national juries, but focusing on different evaluation criteria.
The participants will update you with their blogs about the research conducted in our quarries.
Projects participating in the competition will be published soon. The 5th edition of the Quarry Life Award enters into the next phase with more exciting things ahead!
Morocco Lizard-fingered Gecko (Saurodactylus brosseti) can be found under stones in the quarry. This small gecko is very adapted to extremely arid areas, even in the hottest months and when the ambient temperature exceeded 40º. This ADULT lizard is abundant in various stony or rocky areas in the quarry, where it can be found under small stones.
