I was warned that this can get addictive. My current project is 2 Knightia in oil shale. I'll post updates but I'm going slow on this one.

I'm told the middle fish is a Knightia. Any ideas about what the other 2 are? Also, When I'm done preparing this, how can I darken the fossils and seal it up? It's in oil-shale. Thanks!

I live in Belgium. I'm a geologist, but I have very poor knowledge about fossils. I'm a mineral collector and because I did not find any good minerals, I was looking for fossils;-) ... I ended up with +/- 8 tons (yes 8 000 kg).... Most of the time when I encouter fossils, I give them away or swap it.

A recent topic has indirectly provided me the opportunity to highlight a world class collection. A few years ago, Thomas (oilshale) was one of several members that were passionate, instructive, and extremely patient in the development of The Fossil Forum's Collections section. As a benefit of its creation, we have been steadily and quietly exposed to his incredibly diverse collection. High quality specimens, specimens from world-renown locations, and rare specimens are very well documented in a collection of personal finds and acquisitions. We are honored that Thomas has chosen to share these fossils on TFF. On rare occasions and on a purely subjective basis, Admins on TFF will award The Golden Drool Bucket. The award has evolved to encompass 'off the charts', museum-worthy finds; a best of the best, stunning and well documented collection; or world class preparation on a world class find. Thomas, your Collection is "stunning and well documented", "world class", "museum-worthy" and deserves the recognition of The Golden Drool Bucket. Thank you for sharing it, and congratulations, sir! @oilshale
