Fossil Hunting Special Surprises

I am fossil hunting West of Lyme Regis today.I’m going fossil hunting along the Jurassic Coast at low tide. I’d like to find some of the beautiful little pyrite ammonites that wash out along the beach at low tide. Little nuggets of gold delight, saved from the shifting sands. I recommend wearing safety glasses and sturdy rubber gloves when hammering the right little rocks. I am going to show you a video of me splitting an ammonite out of a little limestone rock in the Summer months. This little rock splitting video has done very well on KZbin for me with millions of views.So look and learn how i spend alot of time sizing the rock up. Fossil hunting really does take hours of patience and persistence. I’m then going to show you me looking for those ammonite bearing rocks around Christmas time. Remember the cliffs are dangerous and liable to fall suddenly and without warning. Keep away from the dangerous cliffs, the best fossils are washed out onto the beaches at low tide, by the sea's actions. Look out for the slippery seaweed on the ledges and rocks. I offer fossil walks along the Jurassic Coast on the following website, so feel free to take a look at the website I made, with our online fossil walks ------www.lymeregisfo... There is a fossil collecting code of conduct in place along the Jurassic Coast.

OK THAT INTRO FOSSIL IS ASTONISHING!!! It’s so perfect! The negative is perfect! The polish is perfect! The sutures are perfect! The ribs are perfect! It’s PERFECT!!! I don’t even know how you find anything with his overpicked Lyme Regis is!

Thanks for your comments. I’m lucky to be able to go out in the Winter months and walk a long way fossil collecting on the low tide . The solid winter months mean the erosion rates are higher and in January I did not meet many other collectors. I’ve been fossiling since I was 7 and I’m now 53. I have some experience but walk with a stick on the longer journeys to save the old knees .

@@LymeRegisFossils hah you’ve had a hell of a lot more experience then me then! And I’ve been fossil hunting since I was 4 and studying palaeontology since I was 7!

What a wonderful video! It lifted my spirits here in gloomy Indiana. Beautiful finds, and the glimpse of pre-Christmas Lyme Regis was just perfect. Happy new year

[@LymeRegisFossils]

That’s very nice of you to say that, thanks 🙏 very much for your comment. Lyme Regis just before Christmas is one of the most quiet places. Then it gets really busy as everyone comes down for the holidays.

[@LymeRegisFossils]

Thanks 🙏 very much indeed. It was some lovely sunny ☀️ weather that developed just before CHRISTMAS ! Now there seems to be a lot of the old rain. Still I can imagine by March the fossil collecting will have built up to be really good again ! See you soon 🔜

What a beautiful place you live in Brandon.

[@LymeRegisFossils]

Thanks 🙏 yes 🙌

Great video! I so wish we lived nearer the coast. We were on holiday near Lyme Regis last year and loved it. I found an ammonite on Charmouth beach, I was so chuffed with it (as was my 6 year old)

[@LymeRegisFossils]

Thanks for the comment, Charmouth beach fossil collecting is a lot of fun- at low tide. I am glad you found an ammonite, you can always remember your holiday near Lyme when you look at the fossil.

Calcite ammonites: pretty cool to look at but not very impressive, UNTIL YOU WET THEM!!!

[@LymeRegisFossils]

They really show up with the lovely calcite colours when you wet them 🙌
