jax Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Yep, still no job yet... So after I filled out some apps, I hit 3 different spots that are all about 2 miles from each other in hopes to find 3 different types of fossils. AND I did. Sharks teeth, Amonites, and Crabs. The Ptychodus are small from this location, and theres a nice fish tooth there as well. The Amonite is in a Septarian Nodule, and it has Pyrite all over it. The shell has started to wear off, thats why its not white all over. And the crabs, they are hard to spot because they are in the nodules in this formation, AND I forgot my hammer at home The two I found in the pic are in pretty good shape. I need to prep them a bit to see if any legs or maybe claws survived. Oh, found that quarter while hunting for the crabs. Every little bit helps The last pics are of my son. Thats him as he was trying to grab my fossil when I was snaping the pics. Little devil. Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Nice hat-trick! I think the quarter must have been re-worked, since it's from Florida Your son looks to be 100% Texas boy "There has been an alarming increase in the number of things I know nothing about." - Ashleigh Ellwood Brilliant “Try to learn something about everything and everything about something.” - Thomas Henry Huxley >Paleontology is an evolving science. >May your wonders never cease!
