fossilized6s Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 My sister and brother in law are taking a little trip to the Mineral wells area. And they would like to do some fossil hunting. They're very adventurous and would (probably) be OK with going just about anywhere. They're going to be there the 28th of November. Any help to point them in the right direction would be much appreciated. Thanks, TFF! ~Charlie~ "There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why.....i dream of things that never were, and ask why not?" ~RFK ->Get your Mosasaur print ->How to spot a fake Trilobite ->How to identify a CONCRETION from a DINOSAUR EGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erose Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Most obvious answer is to visit: http://www.mineralwellsfossilpark.com/ They could stay busy all day at the park. There are other road cuts in the area with fossils as well. sorry I don't have good directions to those since i am away from home now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinlukers Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 The squal creek reservoir is a nice area for shore line fossil hunting With mosllusks and some ammonites. Plus the Brasos River. But be cautious with the river that is might be still high waters. The shores are very mucky. But we did have some luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ptychodus04 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 There's an exposure of shale on Hwy 180 just east of the Brazos River that has been productive in the past. Also, there are many road cuts on Hwy 337 heading north from the Mineral Wells area. Both of these areas are Pennsylvanian (along with the fossil park). I don't do Facebook either and have never been sad that I don't.
