Tidgy's Dad Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Several ammonites in a bivalve shell coquina, I think. The last couple are a rock with mineral veins running through it. 1 5 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stingray Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 @Foote can you provide country your in? Also can you narrow north down a bit. Makes identification much easier just FYI. Not specific location but get us in a geologic region thanks Chris. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plax Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Looks like Bearpaw formation. If so you can google papers on that formation which may include information to ID your fossils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustPlainPetrified Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) Your ammonites are Scaphites. Nice finds and thanks for sharing. Central Alberta is home to a number of good fossil sites. Let me know when your next trip is and perhaps meet up?
