An experimental bot for publishing a random rock age from the Australian geochronology database each day with links to data.

Not an official product, just a bit of #STEM related tinkering. Search the official database for yourself at: https://www.ga.gov.au/geochron-sapub-web/geochronology/shrimp/search.htm
