Finding Fossils - The Forgotten Project from the 70'

Risking to go to new areas in search of fossils is always a lottery if we have no idea of the morphology of the region. This time was not quite the case, it was more or less with the idea that there might be something there despite knowing that many years ago the site was the scene of clandestine constructions ....

Cleaning Fossils with Coke

Cleaning fossils with Coca Cola, sounds a bit crazy, but I decided to do it anyway. I saw on internet that coke, can be used to clean all sorts of stuff, so how about fossils? Do they resist? Do they crumble? Or they could be very well clean of dirt an debris? I gather some "sacrifice" fossils and did this little

Finally, after a few weeks of absence, I was able to spend some time looking for fossils.

Finding Fossils - Down The Rabbit Hole

I returned to the area where I found the largest gastropod fossils of Harpagodes Incertus I have ever seen and nothing prepared me for the surprise that was waiting for me ... It was a spectacular morning full of fossils and I still had the bonus of having met some friends who enjoy more of carrots than of fossils ...

Finding Fossils- Gastropod Central I returned to the area where I found my largest fossil of Gastropod ever and was able to find one of the largest and most detailed gastropod Harpagodes Incertus. It was a great day, the only negative point was the fact that there was a very strong wind that made shooting a bit difficult, but I really have to go back to that place one of these days !!

Finding Fossils- Weid Fossils Sometimes I find some strange fossils that I do not even know what they are, but this time, in addition to finding many bizarre things, I was almost throwing away a fossil that turned out to be something quite different from what I usually find ...

Finding Fossils - Campfire Fossils I was convinced that there was nothing in that place, and if it wasn't for the fact that I discovered fossils on the rocks of an old campfire, I might have passed by and found nothing like I found. It seems that this area in prehistoric times was an ancient coral reef ....

Finding Fossils - The Square Monolith On this day I decided to go to an area where they extract marble to see if I could find fossils there ... The area is fantastic to walk around and there are also many fossils scattered in the landscape, the problem occurred when I found something so BIG ... that it was impossible to take home, and I already have some ideas of what to do with this great monolith.
