Yesterday I washed my finds found on my last Friday trip and from a trip in spring. The weather in June was very rainy this year. So this trip on friday was the third one this year. I was lucky to find a new Lower Carnian (Julian)post-2660-0-79772200-1468144129_thumb.jpg and Upper Carnian(Tuvalian)post-2660-0-66808000-1468144054_thumb.jpg spot on this trip. At my trip in spring this year a wonderfull big Ladinian Protrachyceras archelauspost-2660-0-87904500-1468144086_thumb.jpg was found.

Because I was the whole day in good mood for prospecting I took no pics from the locations and landscape. Today I am a little bit sorry about this because it was a beautiful mountain day truly worth to share with others.

I was curious to see what fauna is inside the Tuvalian blocks. So I prepped a small piece.post-2660-0-65529100-1468513118_thumb.jpgpost-2660-0-43417800-1468513132_thumb.jpgpost-2660-0-56955400-1468513146_thumb.jpg All other material has to wait for wintertime. Diameter of the Trachysagenites(one with nodes) is 4cm and of the Tropites sp. (barrel shaped ammonoid) is 3cm. Last pic is the backside.

Wow, Andreas! :blink:

They are tightly packed in there! :)

Quite the density of specimens in that rock.
