Lane7420 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 These are just a few of the best fossil scallops I’ve found over the years. They were found in the Gulf of Mexico Bay Area in Carrabelle, Florida. I have searched the web for answers but It becomes more confusing the more I read. I’m wondering if you can tell me about these scallops, how they are fossilized and how old they are? Thank you, clane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandpa Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Nice scallops. I'm a big fan of oysters and scallops as well. Again, referring to a geological map of FL (see https://search.yahoo.com/search?p=geological+map+of+florida&fr=yfp-t-s&fp=1&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8 says that Carrabelle, Florida is also in the Pleistocene period. So again, 10,000 yr ago for age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
