  1. Hi again. Last weekend I took a trip to Old Hunstanton to check out the amazing contrast of formation cliffs and with hopes of finding some nice fossils. The cliffs are made up of three layers the lowest rusty brown colour is the Carstone Formation of the Early Cretaceous Albion Stage. The band through the middle is a bright red colour known as the Hunstanton Formation also Early Cretaceous Albion Stage. The top layer is the white Ferriby Chalk Formation from the Late Cretaceous Cenomanian Stage. What a contrast! These cliffs feel much safer to walk below unlike Charmouth or Lyme Regis. The material is very solid and the white layer doesn't erode quickly. It wasn't the place for looking for fossils that the sea had washed out. It is also a very shelly beach, so my eye was struggling to pick out fossil shapes with all the broken shells everywhere. I did find some interesting looking things in the large chunks. This rock was a good meter across, so I couldn't collect it. It contains a lot of shells, belemnites and possibly sponges, but please correct me, as I don't really know a thing. Then this nice piece with lots of small pieces. Sorry I forgot to take a ruler with me. I did find some carriable promising rocks. I've brought this lot home with me for some practice prepping. Does anyone have any idea of what I might find in any of these rocks? Where would be a good place to start? I'm using a dremel 290. Thanks, Jes.
  2. Found this today near where I found the fossilized horse tooth in the cliffs. What do you think it is?

    Help identify this tooth?

    This washed down a tall cliff after all the storms in California. Does anyone know what it is? Thx!

    Normandy cliff

    Hi, I was recently in Normandy, I found this along the cliff between Omaha Beach and Arromanches. I know the rock in the area is Jurassic. I have no idea what that stone could be. It has a maximum thickness of 4 mm. Thank you

    Possible Pachystropheus bone?

    Hi, I am thinking this could possibly be a Pachystropheus centrum or neural arch. Could I be correct? It's from Aust cliffs, UK. The longest side is exactly 2cm long. Many thanks.
  10. Hi, I went to Aust cliffs today. I brought back some material, and noticed these. Could they be bone fragments? They are probably not identifiable, but I think if they are bone fragments would most likely be from an Ichthyosaur or Plesiosaur. I think the one on the right isn't a bit of bone, rather an interesting bit of rock. Many thanks.
  11. Found this 'interesting' rock that had appeared to have fallen down a cliff that me and my partner had scaled down. Thought it looked pretty neat and resembled petrified wood. However, I am definitely no expert here. The rock was found on an English Coastline in a place called Valley of The rocks in Lynton. Millions of years ago there was once a river at the coastline which is supposedly how the valley was formed. I believe there are quartz crystals in the rock too. Is it just a rock? I'm sure you guys get plenty of posts like these lol. Thankyou

    Hunstanton fossil bone?

    Hello, I was fossil hunting today at along the beach cliffs at Hunstanton, West Norfolk, England. Found lot of belemnites and wheels in the cliff rocks, but also found this which to me and my boyfriend looked like a bone of some sorts in the rock? We have only just started getting into fossils so any guidance as to identify this would be appreciated, even if it turns out just to be a cool shaped rock. thanks
  13. I’m sat inside right now waiting for the right time to go down to Charmouth and Lyme after storm Ciara and apparently there’s going to be another storm this week called storm Dennis. Is anyone else waiting for the storms to create some cliff falls and bring down some goodies ? There’s bound to be something in this mass of storms. Also, if you’ve been out straight after Ciara and found some goodies, then i’d love it if you could show us .

    Watton cliff fossil

    This fossil was found at Watton Cliff, Dorset, UK but is turning out quite hard to ID. The location is known for its microfossils, crocodile/ shark fossils and it is also one of the only locations along the Jurassic Coast which has produced mammal fossils. The fossil measures 10 by 5mm. Any help or suggestions for the ID will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Bone?

    Does anyone know if this is bone or not? It was found in aust Cliff and measures 4 by 6cm.
  16. Found the attached at Cory's Lane in Portsmouth RI. I have guesses as to its ID. Do you have any thoughts?

    Aust Cliff vert

    Does anyone know how to prep out this vertebrae from Aust Cliff? Acid prepping Will burn through the fossil. It measures about 3cm from bottom to the top of the neural arch.

    What does this mean?

    When walking along titlow beach in WA (Eocene time period) and we find coal buried in the side of a cliff. Does this mean there was a plant there? bacteria? Tree bark? How did this get here? Also when walking along a Covington river far from the ocean in WA, we find a perfect stripe of coal on the side of a sedimentary rock wall. We can dig it out and it goes back very far. Does this mean that it was the bottom of a lake, ocean or forest where plenty of plants died and were covered in sediment? How did this coal even get here. Does this mean there might be fossils nearby?
