From the album: Fossils from the Plattenkalke of the Altmühl Valley
sometimes the best way to prepare Solnhofen-Fossils is to do it under blue light. This works perfect with nearly all crustaceans, vertebrate-fossils and some more. This one is fresh from the prep and needs finshing, huge Aeger spinipes (around 18 cm) from Eichstaett© fossils worldwide

this is the huge 18 cm Aeger spinipes I showed before as UV-Light-pic. You see..., its easier to prep with blue light© fossils worldwide

Hello all, Found this on the Maryland side of Assateague Island National Seashore while fishing. Not sure what it is or if it's even a fossil. The grey matter is hard as a rock. Any help is appreciated. I can post more pics if needed after work. (Didn't think to put a ruler with it)

I found these fossil crabs. Previously, a few years ago, I had already extracted some, I prepared them by removing the slightly hard earth that covered them, but there is a thin layer from where the crab starts (where I saw it and extracted it) to the layer that worked which is the one that is less damaged. Therefore, it is somewhat fragile and I wanted it to be a more solid piece that I would not be afraid to manipulate and that could break. I wanted to know what is suggested in these cases (as long as it is necessary and does not spoil the fossil, if it is usually done it is the first time I do it) so that a fossil is not so fragile and thin, such as putting it in the deteriorated and less showy part a layer of plaster or something like that. I hope I have explained myself, sorry if my English is not very good, I leave you photos of the crabs. Thank you very much! here is the piece, the current one, the one I found recently (little work, without discovering the main part) the same piece seen from the side the same piece seen from the part where I found it This is a crab that I found a few years ago that is already working. The view is from the side (You see that the piece looks a bit thin and fragile) the same piece seen from the part in which it was found the same piece on the worked side

Hello. Do you guys think I can prep this crab from Al Ain (part of the United Arab Emirates)? It looks pretty beaten up, but I am hoping the ventral side might still be there. I have tried preparing urchins in this matrix with a very diluted water-vinegar solution. Do you think this could work for the crab as well?

Back in the Fall I got permission to visit a small exposure of the Early Albian Glen Rose Formation. Unfortunately the property owner told me that I could only visit on a Friday. We had planned a visit a few times but for some reason or another the plans kept falling through. Today I finally got the chance to visit. Sadly today was one of the coldest days this month. Temperatures hovered in the low 40s with a wind chill factor in the low 30s. After visiting the site I checked out a couple of other spots in the area that I had previously visited. The finds were tough to come by, partly because it was so hard to focus while strong wind gusts chilled my mind and soul as I stared at the ground. But for what today was, I am happy that I at least found something new. Today's new find was this cool partial sea star arm. @erose found one a few years ago in the Glen Rose Formation but this one seems different from the one he found. I have had a lot of success finding claws of the hermit crab Pagurus banderensis at one of the other sites I visited. Today was no different.

I will be working in western Washington this summer and I was hoping to squeeze in a day of fossil or fossil nodule collecting. I am looking for recommendations for one day of recreational fossil hunting.

Oxford clay, Peterborough Member, Jurassic, Callovian, near Yaxley in Cambridgeshire. I spent the morning getting muddy in wet clay, and found this. I think it might be part of a hybodont spine, or other ornate fish spine. I've collected a fragment of hybodont spine from this site before. The surface does seem to be enamel, and the shape is slightly curved. Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Hi! I found this fossil crab from Indonesia. Miocene-Pliocene. To me it looks really nice. But I have heard of fake fossil crabs from Indonesia. Is it real? Regards
