13. Charmouth, UK 8/8/23

    We went for a guided fossil walk with Charmouth Heritage Center. From there, we headed west maybe half a kilometer towards Black Ven. Had a great time! Loads of belemnite fragments and a couple nice pyritised ammonites. There were some other smaller ammonites that I did my best to free from the matrix with a Dremel engraver tool with Zoic fossil tips. 
     
    NB: my daughter artistically organized the belemnites for the group shot. She wouldn't let me move them, so will take another photo with just belemnites later. They haven't been prepped because I got bored and my arm got sore after polishing one.

15. Jurassic Coast, UK, 20-21/10/23

    Our second trip to the Jurassic Coast. We went to Lyme Regis on the first day and Kimmeridge Bay on the second day. We also stopped at the Etches' Collection when we were at Kimmeridge Bay, and what a great museum dedicated to his collection! Stunning samples and a beautiful building. We particularly enjoyed using the projected microscope to look at small details on their sample fossils.

17. Chesapeake and Delaware canal, New Castle county, Delaware USA

    Fossils in this album are from the now lost C&D canal. This site was a dredge dump site near Delaware city. This site was very large and covered acres. However, the site was flooded in 2023 to prepare for a new batch of dredge that does not contains fossils.
     
    Most of the finds at this site date to the late Cretaceous, specifically the Mount Laurel formation. Common finds include bivalves, gastropods and cephalopods. This site had a wide variety of microfossils including solitary coral, bryozoan, crinoids, urchin spines, urchins, worms and brachiopods. Less common finds were vertebra, bone fragments, shark teeth, fish teeth and mosasaur teeth.
     
    Occasional  erratics (likely Devonian) can be found as well. These include brachiopods, corals, crinoids and even trilobites. 
     
    Fossilized woods (date and origin unknown) occasionally was found.
