Smudge Smith posted an image in the group Beach Fossils from the myFOSSIL app 3 years, 1 month ago
3 years, 1 month ago3 years, 1 month agoFound this on beach at Yaverland I.O.W it looks like man-made iron but it’s actually just fools gold. (picture is more pixelated than it actually is) Is this definetly fools gold (pyrite) or something else. Thank you. 😎 #fossil
Do you have any dinosaur teeth?
Put some more pictures of it on hear
Here
yeah I have Dino teeth, none that I’ve found though😬. @jack-parker-tyreman what images do you want?
All of them 😃
I’ll take it for granite
Does granite pyrotise?
I want to go back to the Isle of Wight as soon as possible to Hanover point to find some more dinosaur bone and possibly a Baryonyx, Neovenator or Eotyrannus tooth. But, I will be happy with whatever tooth I find
I already have two pieces of dinosaur bone from Hanover point, but they aren’t very big. Nevertheless they are in quite good condition and are completely different in colour and texture
@jack-parker-tyreman that is AWESOME umm do you want images of teeth or fossil on post? also do you have any good way of telling the difference between fossil wood and bone? because rt now my collection 99.99% wood I’m sure thx
Also didnt know it was possible to find Baryonyx in iow
@bill-heim I don’t think it granite it mt be
If you need any questions about wood and bone I will give my opinion
As I do own some bone from Hanover point
Can you show my your tooth collection please
If you do want to go looking for Dino teeth and bone like Baryonyx you’ll find Hanover point rich in it
Go to the black platform at low tide and search the rock pools
It’s worth using a sieve
THANK You@jack-parker-tyreman 😊
… about the tooth collection…. I don’t have any IOW teeth but I do have some iguanadon BONE. my teeth are mosasaurus, spino etc. I’ll post tomorrow 😁
Cool
😎
Is the fools gold flakey/platey? If so then it is a type of mica called phlogopite!
@chloe-geddes it’s kinda the opposite!
So it blocky?
Well it’s like hard ish on the inside but the outside is like iron. also it’s a perfect semi circle which is why I posted. it’s not too blocky. 🤔
@chloe-geddes
The outside is kinda another material it’s harder and darker in colour
