Are the ammonites so common that you can just hack away willy-nilly with a heavyhanded chiselling technique? Don't misunderstand me, please, I love how much effort you put into the filming and editing, and the information you have provided here is very good. I just think more care should be taken not to break off chunks around the edges when digging them out.

@MrVikramsingh15 ай бұрын
A big problem with the collectors is that they remove the fossils from their locations. When actual palaeontologists or geologists go for field studies they don’t find them. Collection is good for hobby but it is of no use if the fossils aren’t identified correctly or just picked up without noting their coordinates and geological formations.

You are getting to close to the ammonites with your chisel. Your chisel looks like a wood chisel. Try to find a chisel made for rocks. Like a landscapers chisel.

Wow starting off with a massive Parkinsonia parkinsoni or Titanites giganteus ammonite print! Then a large piece of petrified wood with woodworms! Then a MASSIVE (I believe as I can’t see any groves from this footage) Acrocoelites belemnite. Then another maybe Cylindroteuthis. Another MASSIVE Parkinsonia! That annelid worm may be the best! I’m not familiar with the species though.
