dino dna

even if the bone proves to be dinosaurian, that is no guarantee that dna
is.  in mammalian bone only a few months defleshed, we have found live
(and thriving) algae, not to mention fungi, bacteria, and insect larvae
reported by others.  unless you can demonstrate that dna is from tissues
associated with the bone, the dna could derive from later parasites associated
with the bone as it fossilized.
