andreas Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Yesterday I washed my finds found on my last Friday trip and from a trip in spring. The weather in June was very rainy this year. So this trip on friday was the third one this year. I was lucky to find a new Lower Carnian (Julian) and Upper Carnian(Tuvalian) spot on this trip. At my trip in spring this year a wonderfull big Ladinian Protrachyceras archelaus was found. Because I was the whole day in good mood for prospecting I took no pics from the locations and landscape. Today I am a little bit sorry about this because it was a beautiful mountain day truly worth to share with others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreas Posted July 14, 2016 Author Share Posted July 14, 2016 I was curious to see what fauna is inside the Tuvalian blocks. So I prepped a small piece. All other material has to wait for wintertime. Diameter of the Trachysagenites(one with nodes) is 4cm and of the Tropites sp. (barrel shaped ammonoid) is 3cm. Last pic is the backside.

Fossildude19 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Wow, Andreas! They are tightly packed in there! Quite the density of specimens in that rock.
