General Gameplay Rock Collecting

Your Feature Request / Idea
After all dig sites have been depleted I'd like to request for the dig sites to be opened back up again - perhaps in different a state where they return a different proportion fossil 'oddities' (bird eggs, footprints, ammonites etc.) - so you can build an endgame collection.

I don't know if there's a game reason for the sites getting locked (perhaps some species can't be unlocked if you've depleted all dig sites and sold too many DNA samples) but I find the expeditions are quite good fun to send out for no reason other than to search for ammonites. It keeps a point to keeping the building and the helicopter that will fly, air traffic and life in the park.

In the interests of science I depleted all dig sites (they don't open again btw) so my expedition helicopter is now grounded but I still don't have much of a collection. If I had my way I'd fill every slot with ammonites (or gold!). Perhaps the new state expeditions would return junk rocks to discard too.

To give Frontier an in game mechanic for this maybe add decorations (if they ever come) that you can create skeletons from the fossils not used and place them around the park. kinda like the extraction process, you'll have to fill it up to 100% before being able to place the "statue". Also, It would be nice to see the dig sites still stating what dinos were from there. i like to pair species together that came from similar areas and time.
