LiamL Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Just got back from a week fossil hunting trip in North Yorkshire. It's fair to say it was pretty productive! Lots of nodules still need to be popped open! 4 Yorkshire Coast Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tidgy's Dad Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Lots of lovely nodules! You're bound to find something nice when you bosh those open. Good luck! Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Amateur Paleontologist Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Really neat finds! I think the last picture shows a possible Dactylioceras commune. Good job Opalised fossils are the best: a wonderful mix between paleontology and mineralogy! Q. Where do dinosaurs study? A. At Khaan Academy!...

minnbuckeye Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 I have been watching postings from the United Kingdom closely over the last year in anticipation of a visit. After reading your report (great finds!!) I looked up where North Yorkshire is located and was surprised to see it was far from the coast. Most postings of ammonites seem to come from the sea's edge. Were these inland found? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
