It Was Just A One-Gallon Zip Lock Bag

Recommended Posts

Went on a creek excursion to hunt marine fossils several weeks back. I was hesitant about bringing home micro material because last years material from same site didn't produce any stellar finds, so I thought? I brought home a gallon zip lock bag full hoping to try my luck again and glad I did... not bad for a plastic bag of material in a smaller quantity. Brachiopod steinkern, Pseudocorax, Scapanorynchus teeth, Enchodus and Pachyrhizodus fish tooth. Cretaceous Period, Mooreville Chalk, Southeastern USA. Ya gotta love the color of the teeth!

Taking home material for micros is never a waste of time! I love the small stuff. It is always great to be familiar with the micros in your hunting areas.

I have been bringing back micro material from a lot of locations for a longtime. One of my favorite finds was this whale shark tooth from Brownies Beach.in MD a long time ago (plus a incomplete one as well).  Found many micro whale shark teeth from Lee Creek, NC
