SA:Human bones found in Adelaide

A second human leg bone has been found in the Adelaide Hills as police sift through
20 tonnes of loam quarried south of the city.

The bone was found today at the Mount Lofty Botanic Gardens in the Adelaide Hills after
police combed through soil sourced from quarries on the Fleurieu Peninsula.

The search was prompted after a human leg bone was found at the Adelaide Botanic Gardens
in the city last week in mulch sourced from the Mount Lofty site.

Police say the bones could be Aboriginal remains, dating back more than 200 years,
but could also be much younger.
