Well that's hard to believe being that we've been constantly told that coral reefs need crystal clear water to survive. I say drill away.

Coral must like oil. There are old reefs around the Permian basin.

Scientists astonished to find 600-mile long reef under the muddy water in a site already marked for oil exploration.
SO?

The planet will probably be reaching peak coral soon! Maybe all this coral is causing globing warming!

Well, if it were the USA, that would be it for any drilling prospects.

Drill baby drill.

Poor little corals.
Seriously though. The Amazon river water probably provides a pretty rich feed supply. Those are, more than likely, some very happy corals.

Must be some kind of special “brown-water coral.”

Scientists today are too busy filling out requests for government grants to actually do any exploring on this old planet. That’s why they were thoroughly gobsmacked when the good ol’ boys from Texas proved the “peak oil” gospel to be just another hoax by phony “scientists.” They are no better than the Gibsmedats who vote for Free Stuff every election and should have zero credibility by now.

I knew Amazon.com was big but I didn’t know it had its own river delivery system also.
