  1. Hello, I would like to give a away some Gosau-fossils from Austria, Styria, for free. Mainly hippuritid rudists, some Trochactaeon snails. I don´t want anything in exchange, shipping is free. If you like, you can donate a small amount to TFF after you have received the fossils, but that´s not obligatory. Please pm me, if you are interested. Thanks. Edit: Closed! Several people have already pointed out their interest in specimens. I am likely to run out of stock . Good thing!! Thanks for all your interest! Franz Bernhard
  2. Hello, I have been going through some fossils that I bought a while back. I came across this agatized snail from Morocco. I’ve tried to find more information on these agatized snails, but have been unable to find much. Some sellers online say that they come from Assa, Morocco, while others say they come from the Dakhla region. I’m also wondering what species this little guy belongs to, and a more precise age for these gastropods, although I’m pretty sure they are Eocene. Does anyone have any information regarding these agatized snails?

    New Jurassic site

    Hello, I made this trip actually yet in 2020, on December 29th, but I didn't have time to post it earlier. I went to Sulejów, which is a former limestone mine now flooded with water: Nearby there is an active mine, but they don't let in fossil hunters Anyway, I was hoping that the water level would be low enough to permit browsing the slopes and it was so - of course not in every place. Some parts of the reservoir are overgrown and not very accessible: There were however a few slopes where I could go closer to the water level and browse the rocks:
  4. No images (yet, they are coming), yesterday in celebration of my Stereo Microscope (3.5 to 90x with camera port) shipping I decided to go fossil hunting. @71 I have to be careful when I go hunting (my wife it turns out is a fair weather digger) by myself. I have spent the last months working on my collections from the summer in two Keasey Formation locations (deep and shallow marine) with good manual tools and a dremel, but with sup-optimal hand optics (one is actually a very nice 8x optic but just to hard to use). So my wife said why don't you get a reasonable scope (would be my first since high school). So I ordered an AMscope and added a ring light to go with my video LED's I used for lighting. Not the best, but what I could afford and should work well with my camera capable of taking 80 MPX stills and being tethering to my PC showing the image on a 4K 50" screen. So being excited I went to the easiest of the two locations I've been "digging". Low 40's (F) and raining when I left in my Subaru Crosstrek (both of my cars are 4x4's to get me where I want go go here in Oregon) I was thinking "if I only find a couple of new things I will be happy". This location the actual out cropped is on an extremely steep hill, and I "dig" only in the talus at the bottom, what falls is where I find. As I approached the site I started to fill the anticipation. I parked at the base of the hill, and started my adventure. There are two layers at this location, one is a sandstone that is loosely consolidated (I think shallow water) and the a hard Shale (earlier deep water). First find in an unconsolidated sandstone that falls apart in my hand leaving a complete (top/bottom shells - one piece) in my hand. Big smile. Then I look a bit farther and I see the "mother-load" as the miners say. Apparently the heavy rains of the last couple of weeks have cause a large piece of shale to break off the formation and tumble the 70 or 80' down and break into about 15 rocks weighing between 5 and 30 pounds, fossils are abundant in every rock. I know the state will clear these because they are on the edge of the road and present a hazard. I move and leave 3 pieces for the next lucky person. I load what I think is about 100 pounds of large rocks in the car and then add a trash bag full of the unconsolidated sandstone, and a 10 gallon buck of small pieces that have the same matrix of shells. I now have my winter tasks all set. I've accumulated a lot of research and images from which work on the identifications this winter. If this find had not be a road hazard on this blind curve I would have left more but there was a road crew working not more than a couple of miles away and I could not risk that these precious finds would end up in the rock crusher or just dumped somewhere. I will be posting my finds here asking for ID help I am sure and with the new scope hopefully some great images. All and all a great way to start the New Year off. I've attached just a quick macro shoot of a snail. Haven't ID it yet, guess anyone? BTW its a cast and that is why some areas are Out of Focus (didn't have time to stack images).

    Ammonites and gastropods.

    Hello, sorry to be a pain with all these IDs. I thought itd be easier if I just put all of them in one post. All were found in Northamptonshire, UK. Which is mostly Jurassic in age. Sorry there's no scale, I couldn't find my ruler anywhere. I'll have to upload more images below this. Its been quite some time since I've found ammonites. The land had just been rotavated, and aside from the ammonites, I found some Bivalves, and two golf balls buried. Thanks. These are the first two ammonites, I tried to ID them, but they are incomplete, so it was a difficulty, the closest I think it looks like is Harpoceras. Each are about two centimetres (about 0.8 inches). I saw a neighbour had a very similar rock with two larger ammonites on them that was being used to hold a fence down.

    after arriving in Utah I was itching to get out and dig. So I found a spot on google and boy did it pay off. I anyone knows what layer it is or what these are please let me know. I can’t do close up of any of the fossils tomorrow if need be.
  10. Hi! I would like to trade these Nerinea snails,they were found in Valjevo,Western Serbia. They are from the Jurassic period.If anyone is interested send PM! In return i would like to trade these for teeth mostly,but if not other fossils are possible too Kind regards, Darko
