No full textMuseal Activity to Promote Geotourism and Geosite Protection: The Case of the National Ceramics Museum, Safi, Morocco
Full text linkMuseums, as significant actors in their respective areas, face the challenge of evolving beyond being mere repositories of heritage. They are increasingly expected to serve as instrumental contributors to balanced human development and overall societal well-being. This includes actively participating in cultural tourism and geotourism initiatives, which are essential components of broader efforts to enhance collective welfare. This study explores the role of museums in promoting geotourism and preserving geological heritage, using the National Ceramics Museum in Safi, Morocco (NCMSM) as an example. Experts agreed on the potential of museums to promote geotourism and protect geosites through a variety of activities, including geosite visits, educational programs, interpretive panels, geotours, awareness campaigns, souvenir offers, and interactive applications. These initiatives can effectively raise awareness, foster appreciation, and support the conservation of geosites, while also contributing to the development of sustainable geotourism practices. Statistically, amongst the listed activities at NCMSM, the pottery workshops are the most recommended activity as they appeal to people of all ages and levels. The ceramic-rich heritage at NCMSM is encouraged to take a holistic approach, ensuring a wider impact on public understanding, engagement, and preservation efforts

No full textDetailed taxonomy and biostratigraphy of the limestone, shale-rich Cretaceous Goru Formation within the western Sulaiman Range refer to diverse and well-preserved planktonic foraminifera. The age-diagnostic planktonic foraminifera encountered are; Biticinella breggiensis (middle Albian), Rotalipora ticinensis (late Albian), Rotalipora appenninica (latest Albian), Rotalipora brotzeni (early Cenomanian), Rotalipora cushmani (late Cenomanian), Whiteinella archeocretacea (latest Cenomanian–Earliest Turonian), Helvetoglobotruncana helvetica (early to middle Turonian), and Marginotruncana sigali (late middle to late Turonian). Based on the recovered planktonic foraminifera a middle Albian–late Turonian age has been assigned to the studied formation. The Rotalipora reicheli (middle Cenomanian) Zone was not identified as the First Appearance Datum of the nominal taxa present within the Rotalipora cushmani Zone. The planktonic foraminiferal assemblage characteristics suggest that the bioprovince of the Cretaceous Goru Formation belongs to the subtropical, warm water environment belonging to the Cretaceous Tethyan Realm and the palaeobiogeographic reconstruction suggests that the Neotethys was well-connected during the Albian–Turonian time interval
