@habibe-hasan nice fossil! If you want this to be marked research grade, you will have to include more information about the location (nearest town), post pictures from more angles, and post a picture with a scale (ruler or coin).
-
this is a great ammonite fossil, nice fossil!
-
tenks

@chad-nusdisn Nice find! Doesn’t look like a fossil but perhaps some nice vugs of calcite, pretty crystals are always fun. Keep looking in that area though, limestone is sometimes fossiliferous

love that you used a fossil in aquarium decoration. I’ve done the same before. that fossil is of an orthocone shell
-
or probably belemnite
-
Something I am currently working on is setting up a small tank filled with trilobite fossils and then I am going to grow triops in them. A window in to a prehistoric ocean! Well sort of
-
@chloe-geddes that is by far the most amazing sounding aquarium setup I’ve ever heard. excuse me but I’m going to copy your idea, it’s too clever!!!
-
Please do! I am only the co-thinker anyways, haha! I am SO excited for it to be done!!

Belgrade Mine 3 years, 2 months ago3 years, 2 months ago3 years, 2 months agoI’m seeing that we have many new members of this group. Does anyone have any mammals fossils that they have found at the Belgrade mine from North Carolina? If so, send me photos, or upload them to our EMUSEUM. I then can explain why they are interesting.
-
I’m here in Craven County, NC but turned down a chance to go into Belgrade. (Didn’t think there were mammals there.)
-
Oh yes, and they are very interesting–I study ancient mammals that lived on land. At Belgrade these include horses, carnivores, rodents, tiny deer-like mammals, peccary, giant pig-like mammals, and possibly rhino. These are otherwise found from other early Miocene (about 20 million years old) localities elsewhere in the US, including California,…[Read more]
