From the FIRST Earthcache in geocaching.com (GCHFT2): (visit link)
"Not all fossils are the remains of animal shells or bones. Trace fossils are the preserved marks, tracks and burrows of animals in sediments that later turn into rock. At this location, trace fossils of worm and other animal burrows are very abundant. They appear as dark marks on the light gray rock."
Significantly Wasp Head is the southernmost point of the sedimentary geological Sydney Basin.
