After much consideration; I decided to allow someone else, to introduce me to their local fossil rich area. At the Bone Valley Fossil Farm; the owners have used heavy equipment to remove the upper 12 feet of sandy topsoil. Doing so, exposes Megalodon era fossil layers. The fossil layer is then dug out with heavy equipment, and is piled up at wet screening wash stations on the owner's property. This is a paid access fossil site, and all necessary wet screening equipment is furnished for you. I found a good variety of fossils; during 6 1/2 hours of frantic, almost non-stop fossil hunting. You can go at your own pace. You can do it your way. If you finish your pile, before the 6 1/2 hour timeframe is up; the owners will quickly replenish your pile, with more fossil rich soil. They are very friendly, and they cater to you well. I had a great experience, and I believe it was well worth the access fee I paid. They are good people. Now, some fossils!!!

Can anyone please help me identify this rock? I found it in our farm garden in 1980

Hi. I’m Barry, I stumbled across your website and decided to join. I’ve had a farm in southern Ontario for 17 years and have discovered numerous fossils on the land. I know nothing about them but would love to know more. I’ve photographed them and would like to post them. Should I just post them to the “Fossil ID” section? Thanks.

Hi, I posted my hello over in the member intro thread. I’m new here and have been collecting fossils on my farm for the last 17 years. I have little idea of what they once were but I’m very curious. Here’s part one of three. Thanks.

Here’s part three....

Here’s part two.....

I found this on a farm In NSW AUST where I was land leveling with large machinery for irrigation development. I’ve found fossils and early human artefacts before but this was a bit different and caught my eye so I did a little research on the Web as you do! And after looking at as many meteorites and meteorwrongs as possible I have come to the conclusion it has me convinced it’s a meteorite! So was wondering what others opinionions might be?? I have some good pics and I’ve down sized my images to way under the TFF limit but unfortunately still says they’re to big? So this is all I can send atm!
