  1. Hello! My name is Elaine Scott. I am a new member to the forum. Exploring the mountains in the high desert and rock/fossil hunting is a hobby of mine. I have a small collection of interesting items. Some of which I will ask for help identifying, I look forward to feedback! I see there's soo much content to explore on this site I'm pretty sure I'll spend the next several hours (and many more in days to come) scrolling through it all. I hope everyone has a great day!

    Prep tools

    Hi, can someone recommend me some good fossil prepping tools on Amazon for under 200 even if it’s an air scribe with a compressor, total under 200. Please attach pictures if you can thank you:))))

    Dire wolf tooth? Found in FL

    I recently found this partial tooth in Florida and I really think it’s dire wolf. It looks exactly like the upper carnassial dire wolf teeth online. The only measurement i have is that the thickest part of the enamel from top to bottom is 17mm thick, not accounting for wear. Can you guys confirm/deny? Thanks! filtered-3F76D20A-199B-4B93-8957-ACB17287FC39.mp4
  5. How rare is it to find a Mosasaur Tooth, with the Root Preserved?
  6. Steve DeGoes

    New guy with lots of questions!

    Hello everyone! I'm in the Big River, San Bernardino county along the Colorado River area around the Whipple mountain range the pictures I will be sending is to get input from from you that know and to find out how far off I am on my thinking as to what they are! One thing for sure is there is alot of awesome stuff here! Thank you in advance!
  7. Hi, I have several recent finds, all on one property, here in N. W. CT. These finds are new to the area, and I first want to show photos of petrified wood, I have found here, in several different varieties,including different types of rocks making them up.

    Are these rocks fossils?

    Are these rocks fossils ? Thanks!
  9. Is there anyone else on here who collects large shark vertebra? I am mainly interested in the ones from the USA. Although I have a bunch of ones from Morocco and all of them, or at least, most of them are over 4 inches.

    Last of Wife’s Finds

    This looks like a fossilized rock.

    More of Wife’s Finds

    More of my wife’s finds. And yes, they are really fossils.
  13. Hi Everyone! My wife asked me if her finds look like anything. Being ignorant, I told her I’d post them and see what the Experts say. Here’s #1: Here’s #2:
  14. My mom found this in the Black Forest in Germany when she was really little. This was over 60 years ago. Could it be a fossilized mushroom?
  15. 2012 gathering 2013 gathering 2014 gathering 2015 gathering 2016 gathering 2017 gathering 2018 gathering 2019 gathering Hi everyone, the Singapore Fossils Collector had our annual meet-up again! I last stated in 2019 it'd be the last event at my place due to my new responsibilities with marriage and a new house looming. Little did we know that the biggest hurdle of all would be Covid And so for 4 years, all SG collectors gatherings were suspended. Much has changed. I am now a father, and I just got my own place 4 months ago! With my wife's permission, I finally got to host the annual gathering for Singapore fossil collectors again! This time, we even had friends from Malaysia and Vietnam joining! To be honest, my new place is still messy, and most of the labels have not been printed. Still, I didn't want to delay the gathering to 2024, else we might not get to meet our overseas friends, so I hosted the meet-up First up, a quick look at some of my cabinets: And soon, guests began to pour in: Some good trades going on! Group photos: Some of my acquisitions for the day: (For those wondering, these are mostly a mix of Malaysia and Vietnamese fossils. There are many copal from Malaysia that I did not photograph here) Thank you for viewing, and see you again next year! All in all, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and form new friendships, so all in all, I'd say it's a success! If any of you are visiting Singapore, don't hesitate to ring me up!
  16. Any nileus trilobites for trade?
  17. Our Rock and Fossil Club participates in an event called "Day at the Quarry" where children (and adults) with interest in Geology and Paleontology spend an afternoon in a local quarry learning about its operation as well as collecting minerals and fossils. Inside the main tent, one of our members was showing off a collection of crystals for the visitors. In addition, he had brought one of his prep tools to clean out the interior of geodes that the children broke open. It was a textile cleaning gun which shoots a high velocity stream of water, great for cleaning both textiles and rocks!! I was so impressed with its ability to clean, that I ordered one immediately upon arriving home, at a cost of around $50.00. It is visible on the center of his table. As mentioned, it is high velocity and can actually injure your hand if in the way of the stream of water. Here are two examples of its use on brachiopods. What a difference! Takes just seconds. No pin vice can clean out the crevasses as well as this device!!! Though I must divulge, it does NOT remove all of the matrix stuck to some fossils and occasionally will destroy a fossil due to too much pressure. So it is a learning curve in deciding when to use it.
  18. Hello 👋 I am so happy to have found this forum! I have already gleaned some excellent I formation and look forward to more. I am an avid researcher. If my interest in something, in ANYTHING is piqued, I have to KNOW all there is to know about that particular subject. A blessing and a curse. My curiosity is rarely, if ever, fully satisfied. I have been told by many, many experts that several of the things I have been finding recently are absolutely NOT in Southeast Kentucky amd I MUST be mistaken. Ummm... I live in Southeast Kentucky and most (99%) of what I have found in the past several months has been from an area within 10 miles of my home. So, what am I missing? Only so much can be explained through the occasional drop or glacial deposits. Just in the past 24 hours I have found over 30 small geodes! All between 1 inch and 4 inches in diameter. All within 30 yards of each other. NOT in or near water. Also found were bits of agate, small agate nodules, crinoids, crinoid crusted geodes, loads of Rugose (horn) coral, etc...

    Hi everyone, Together with my daughter we have found a kind of fossils in Halkidiki, Northen Greece. It was found after the storm in the lowest layer of 10 meters beach mountain consisting from clay. What we already dug up It seems to be a two bones and part of scull. Any ideas what it could be?

  22. Hi, Fellow Fossil Folks. Are any of these things more than rocks?

    Fossil or rock?

    I found this half floating half not floating in the pacific ocean. Oregon midwest beach area. It feels lightweight but dense towards the back where the curvatures are. I have yet to wash or wet it at all as i am unsure if that would have any negative effects. The rock identification sites I used weren't sure, so I am hoping maybe someone might know here. I can take different images or clean it once someone with expirience tells me how to do so safely.
  24. Ordered these from Canada the other day. I bought a pair of flexis, an isotelus roller, and an isotelus in matrix ... got them this afternoon. Pretty happy with them.
  25. Today I got up early and drove 1 hour and 45 minutes (118 miles), one way, to Freeport, Illinois’ Eagle Club for the last show of the season presented by the Northwest Illinois Rock Club’s Show. This show runs Saturday and Sunday. This is a very small show, but I like to go, because you never know what you can find. Unfortunately, I did not find any fossils that I wanted, but I bought a number of pieces of obsidian, here is a piece of Mahogany Obsidian, this piece is about the size of a 16” softball. I picked up this piece for $8.00, a great price. Here are some pictures of fossils, one vendor has some nice stuff from Lebanon and Solnhofen. He showed me a few larger pieces that he had boxed up, very nice pieces, unfortunately I did not think about taking pictures. Pics of the venue.
