Auspex Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 They are all real nice; I'm sure it was exciting to find them!

Shamalama Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Very nice plates of Brachiopods, Matt! -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave. To them, the roadcut is a portal, a fragment of a regional story, a proscenium arch that leads their imaginations into the earth and through the surrounding terrain. - John McPheeIf I'm going to drive safely, I can't do geology. - John McPheeCheck out my Blog for more fossils I've found: http://viewsofthemahantango.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranha Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Well done Sir !! You are so lucky to be fossil hunting in such a spectacular strata of the Devonian sea. After looking at these beautiful brachiopod plates that you discovered I have to tell you they are as good as it gets and could easily be on display at any natural history museum. The fact that you found them is priceless and makes me wish for the opportunity although for now it's very rewarding to see your great collection. We are all looking forward to seeing what fossil treasures you will discover next. Hopefully a few trilobites this year? Thanks Matt !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
