Hello everyone, I am very happy I just took my first trip fossil hunting in Eastern UK, specifically in Tankerton an Herne Bay. Amateurs as we are, we were not sure what we were looking for, so did our best and grabbed the items that most caught our attention hoping they are fossils, also hoping that I could come to this forum and ask those with more experience about them. Sorry if the answers are too obvious! 1) In Herne Bay we found 6 shark teeth, I am pretty sure they are fossilised. One of them is a bit translucent and sharper, and I am not sure if that's from a contemporary shark, ir just happens to be a really well preserved fossil. 2) I also found an Oyster shell, it seems to me very "rocky", I want it to be a fossil but I don't know. 3) There is also this green item that looks like a partial beer coaster, but feels and looks like stone. Any ideas what that could be? 4) I think this one is a fossilised small snail shell, it has markings of concentric circles on the side, and has a shape that fits that of a snail, but that's about it. 5) We found many rocks with these features: light brown colour with patterns that remind me of a Cactus Lithops. Anyone know what these are? 6) Hopefully belemnite pieces, but honestly probably just rocks. 7) Found this rocky fragment with wave-like markings, I am much more confident about this one being a fossil than the other items besides the tooth. Ideas? 8) What I thought could be the point end of another snail shell. 9) We found these white and somewhat translucent rocks, anyone know which mineral they are? 10) And we also found these geodes with small crystals inside them. They do not wash out with water so I am sure the crystals are not salt haha, any ideas? Also, what looks like dirt in the picture is not dirt, I tried cleaning these rocks with water and my fingers and the brown stuff seems part of the minerals. Thanks a lot, and sorry for the long text!!

Hello, I picked this up among some gravel, I'm guessing this cold be a belemnite, but am not certain. I noticed it had a strange lump, is anybody able to identify this? Sorry there's no scale, it's about 6-7cm. Thanks.
