Nimravis Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Here are a couple of my Blue tinted fossil; 2 small Oligocene rhino jaws from South Dakota with blue teeth- 2- Blue molars from a Pleistocene Peccary from Florida. A small piece of Arizona Petrified wood that I that my parents bought for me when I was a young. I have had it for about 45 years and has always been a favorite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Nice! Love blue fossils. Will have to get pics of more and post them up.

Who would ever guess blueberries were their favorite food?! They didnt have whitening toothpaste in the Pleistocene. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I find the above post informative. Always thought toothpaste originated in the Pliocene but apparently it wasn't even in the Pleistocene!

siteseer Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Here are two great whites from the Early Pliocene San Mateo Formation of Oceanside, San Diego County, California. They were collected sometime prior to the 90's and maybe in the 70's. The upper is just under 2 1/2 inches and the lower is just under 2 inches. They have a different blue than you see from Peru. It's a darker, grayer blue. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siteseer Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Here's a Carcharodon hastalis from the Middle Miocene Sharktooth Hill Bonebed, Bakersfield, Kern County, California (labial and lingual views). You don't see a lot of blue teeth in the bonebed but sometimes you find one. This one is just under 2 1/2 inches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hokietech96 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Mako from SC. Nice light blue mixed with white. One of my favorite teeth in my collection because of the marble color next two are from bone valley. Deep dark blue color. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BirdsAreDinosaurs Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) Nice (old) topic! This is a tooth (bovine) I found on a beach near The Hague, The Netherlands. It sure is blue!

siteseer Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) I posted this great white tooth from the Pliocene Pisco Formation of Sacaco, Peru in the "Show us your pink fossils" thread but it's blue and pink so I'll put it here too. It came out in the photo a little grayer than it is but I think you can still see the blue in it (size: 1 3/16 inches/29mm).

These teeth have the same preservation as many I've seen from the "Hog Heaven" site at the Haile Quarry, Newberry, Florida (just west of Gainesville). There was a collector/dealer down in southern California who had a beer flat full of these peccary teeth (part of a big trade/deal with a Florida dealer). One way he tried to sell them was he glued a tooth to a small clear acrylic stand like a mini museum display. A friend, the late Charles Steen, liked the look of them at his shop and bought several to resell at shows. He called it "pig on a stick." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siteseer Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) Here are a couple of Isurus desori (or early I. oxyrinchus) teeth from the early-middle Miocene Olcese Sand in Bakersfield, Kern County, California. The sites aren't far from Sharktooth Hill sites but they are a little older and therefore deeper - fewer spots were you can get to it. The sites are also less productive but you get a different mix of genera. Many of the teeth are sort of a sky-blue color or slightly darker but you can get some that are more of a cola color as well.

Here is an unidentifed, Lower Devonian brachiopod from the Glenerie Limestone. It has some sort of botryoidal vivianite or apatite on the back end of it. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM - APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

PRLE Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Some of my blue coral fossils. All found in Southwestern Ontario. One day I'll take a picture of them out in the sun, the blue really comes through then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one is very nice, I bet it looks pretty good in the display case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
