Chasing rumours of fossil penguins - fossil hunting a new site
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 кві 2021
- I heard rumours about a fossil site where a penguin had been found in recent years so I just had to go check it out! It's always interesting fossil hunting in a new location as you have to first figure out what age the rocks are and which ones contain the fossils! It took me a while to get going but managed to find some really good fossils!
I haven't done a prep video in a while as I am hard at work on the giant 50lbs crab. I'm more than a 100 hours into it already and probably have at least 60 more to go, it's a beast and my most ambitious prep job jet!

I finally found a fossil penguin! ua-cam.com/video/ceGmsVJwXXM/v-deo.html
I’m going to have to look at my local rocks a bit more carefully now. First time I’ve seen your channel and it really interests me, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it Andy 😄
Mamlambo Fossils It makes me wonder if I’ve been walking over fossils for years, or maybe they just don’t exist here, because I do look at rocks a lot.
It's just how life works. Imagine how many opportunities you have overlooked or have turned down.
@@MamlamboFossils same with me I’m going to see my backyard

I'll never look at all the rocks and pebbles on the beach in the same way again. I was so astonished when you found that crab in the rock at the beginning. I never would have identified that unless you pointed that out. It's fascinating. Now I can't wait to go to the beach.
You got yourself a new fan Mr. Mamlambo. The amount of times I've been on holiday to Welsh Sea Side towns that have beaches exactly like that and never even realised what I was looking at it depressing. I know now though. Thank you.
Yay!! I hope you find something next time!
@@MamlamboFossils Me too my friend . Thank you.
Oh my word! I have a thing for rocks and stones and that beach looks like heaven! I will need a trailer to take home all the ones that I like. Gorgeous tumbled pebbles!
There are always such nice jasper rocks over there 😀
Your ability to see them is amazing.
It's all those hours I spend looking at rocks!
@@MamlamboFossils Worthy pursuit 🙂
Normal people: Let's go look at some penguins"
Mamlambo: "Let's go look for pieces of penguins that died 10 million years ago"
Millions of years ago?
Haha, great joke.
Earth is nowhere near that old, not even a fraction of 1% as old.
Silly zombies believe utter nonsense from a consistently lying establishment.
99.99% of human beings have lost their intelligence.
@@gavmedia5674 bruh what hahaha
@@gavmedia5674 This guy makes his own fake fossils.Some of what he shows may be real but some of it is fake.
@@jeffhallel8211 evidence?
Better than looking in the mirror, at.
I can't wait to see your progress on the nautilus shell!
Oooh thats a bit back in the prep queue 😀
Beautiful site and fascinating finds. Thank you for taking us along on your beach walk.
My pleasure!
It may be too late to have a guess on the Jasper, but I'm guessing 187g.
Mamlambo, I just happened upon your channel tonight and I have to tell you that you just reignited my mineral and fossil collection spark. I had gotten a Geology (Geosciences) Minor in university purely because I loved looking at and holding all different kinds of 'rocks' and had used a rock tumbler for a while to polish up some of my favourite gemstone beach & mine finds, but never had thought to scour a rocky beach for fossils! I was already blown away, but then upon realising you were here in NZ too has made me want to leave my house at midnight to go in search.
Although, I'm up in Auckland and based on the waterside places I've been so far within an hour radius, I would assume there's not all too much around here and would need to travel much farther south (likely near the west or bottom of the South Island for best chance?).
Any tips would be much appreciated! Or to come learn for you yourself haha
Wow spectacular Nautiloid👍looking forward to the preparation.
Great Video👏
Thanks so much!
Who ever thought I would watch a full video on fossils in rocks! Watched the blooming ads too buahaha. Love your content
Hahaha thanks Sharlene!
Good for you man, I'm on the east coast of Ireland and I am in wicklow town right by the beach and there are stony coves but I wouldn't know what to look for
I'm kinda jealous
But I am going to keep my eyes open
Thank You
🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Cant wait for prep video of that nautiloid!!!:))
You alaways have that pumped up energy in every video
My girlfriend Jo, and I love your show!!
We wish we could get you a helicopter to get those bigger fossils off the beach!!
We’ve been finding fossilized bones on our beaches in Half Moon Bay Ca USA
Whenever we find them we wish you were here to identify them!!
Best of luck with the penguin fossil hunt!!
We’re guessing 387 grams for the Jasper!!!
Have a great weekend🖖🏻😎
La honda native here!same re HMB!!I have some nice pieces from the Davenport area!Happy hunting neighbors!Oh,ditto to you in New Zealand-imo,the most beautiful country in the world!
Your penguin is out there! Never give up!
I'm going to guess 127g on the jasper.
Very nice haul. Can't wait to see the nautilus glued together and prepped! 💚
I've done some prep work on it and its glued back together 😀
Watching you have to haul around and then prep those big hulking solid concretions really makes me grateful for our comparatively light and easy to prep out unconsolidated Miocene deposits here in the Chesapeake lol
That sounds like a much easier way to collect fossils, at least I don't have to put jackets on these - they come pre-jacketed :D
The idea of checking river rock for fossils.... never really occurred to me. Learn something every day.
Well if you can find a penguin fossil on your beach I'm going to be thinking everything in the pebbles is a fossil lol, new zealand is a beautiful country, cool channel.
Just found the chanel and I already love it! If I had to throw a guess out it would be 274 grams.
New favorite channel!
Subbed!
Yay! Thanks David!
Weather has turned heat it’s time for us to take to the coast and hunt. Hope we find something interesting to share with you. Very excited for the hunt
I knew that big crab was gonna take some work but I wasn't expecting 200 hours, holy wrist ache batman! I'm guessing 312.56g for the jasper (I know how accurate a previous winner was!).
Hahahah that crab is a beast! The claw on it is huge!
Well, I learned something about rocks now. I will never look at rocks the same again.
Same here, 😅😅
188 grams is my guess for the jasper. Beautiful!
That 🐧 out there waiting for you somewhere 🤘
Would really enjoy a tour of the museum if possible to see any specimens prepared and described. Love the channel and all the grunt work!
I'll have to ask them for permission to film! That's a great idea though!
@@MamlamboFossils Can you reveal which NZ museum(s) you usually send these fossils to?
I hope you find that elusive penguin eventually. Can't wait to see the next prep. My guess for the jasper is 280grams.
Thanks Carrie!
Spoiler alert! Thanks Carrie, smh!
@@DelvadoMekiatti Most people i know like it, then watch first before commenting, I guess your backwards?
Why you so mad at my comment? Your comments is right below the video. Unless one is completely myopic then it would be read naturally just glancing at the video. And by the sounds of it you’re intellectually myopic.
No guess on the jasper. The two nautilus are a great find. Believe they are a stunning species when swimming. Thanks to nature documentaries. Good luck on your future endeavors!
Nice finds. First time seeing your videos. I look forward to seeing more. I'll have a whack and say 197 grams
Glad you enjoyed it!
What was it about the waters 12 million years ago there that formed so many concretions? Or is this normal and you're the only channel covering them?
Great video as always. Look forward to seeing the crab. I reckon it’s 172g.
Awesome video! Always a great day when I discover you've posted something new. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it Glenn!
Another great video! Seems so relaxing out there! My guess would be 333 grams of jasper.
Cheers
Have a question, could the concreations be xrayed to see what's exactly inside prior to prep
Yes they can. Using neutrons though as X-rays don't penetrate the rock far enough.
@@MamlamboFossils thanks mate appreatiate the response.
Ah, bummer, I was rooting for you to find a penguin! I think 349 grams on the jasper? :-)
Hello, new viewer here in Canada! Are you able to upload different images of essential rivers rocks & their particular names. Thank you!
Thank you
mamlambo, the red jasper piece, I wonder what it would look like if it was polished ? Do you polish stones ?
Good luck with the Penguin hunt mate, nice finds today 👍
needed this!
13:35 for stuff like that, it would be a decent investment to get a second hand jeweler's wire stone saw (i think that's what they're called) that uses diamond wire to cut the stone. I don't have one, but i bought four meters of the wire they use and converted a grinder to cut concrete for whenever we do analysis on it. On fleaBay, it's actually quite cheap. Submerged in a bath of water, it could cut excess material in under a few hours. Better than grinders or cutting wheels for sure. Just a thought.
How valuable fossilized rock to sale and how to sale rock
Someday, your penguin will show itself. In the meantime, you found some amazing nautiloids! I'm thinking you will take video as you glue and prep....can't wait to see them revealed. I'm stunned about the time you've spent on the crab -- it will be amazing to see. Love visiting the beaches with you in search of shark teeth and fossil penguins....you spot the most incredible finds.
Plot twist: all those round rocks? Fossil eggs.
realy want to see you prep that nautiloid!
I've prepped a nautiloid before, it's on my channel somewhere :)
First time watching you - that was fun! Going to guess 246g on the jasper
It's been awhile since I watched any videos, because I got the Covid and double pneumonia 3 weeks ago. I'm lucky to be alive. Watching your videos is therapeutic and comforting to watch. Thank you for the videos!
Hoping your recovery goes well!
Great job. Love watching. Thx.
You'll find that penguin someday!
I really hope so!
first time watching. awesome video! guessing 310 grams for the jasper 🤞
Awesome finds! I’d say 250 grams of jasper.
7:57 It is a little bit shellfist from such a small nautiloid to take up such a big rock. :D
Love it!!
Can't wait to see your largest prep. My guess the jasper is about 147 gms.
Good luck with yer penguin! I'm gonna guess 343 grams on that jasper.
This is gnarly. I love stuff like this. It's hard to word it exactly but I just love "finding stuff". Like metal detecting, finding a fossil or just finding something on the ground or semi-buried. I feel like I would nearly have a heart attack from excitement if I found some cool stuff like this. But I live in Arkansas in the US - I mean, there's a gravel/sand processing plant by the Arkansas River and my old school and lots of other places used pebbles/pea gravel from this place and I remember I used to find tons of little shell fossils in them on the playground at school. But Arkansas is pretty far from the ocean and I don't think many people find big/substantial fossils around here. People mainly find arrowheads from native tribes.
I used to metal detect quite a bit, I know what you mean by the thrill of finding things. If there were fossil shells, there might be some other fossils as well :)
My guess on the jasper is 225 grams! Hope you find that penguin, it’s waiting for you!
I have like jasper, Chalcedony,agate look like color brown fossilized heart form almost 7kilos
Does this mean we'll have a video of you prepping that large crab?
Of course!!!
Of course!!!
How to make a fake?
Fossil penguins?
Now that’s REALLY COOL!!! 🥶
Hi buddy you know what it's hard searching a new fossil locality. You know that anyway so do I.
I take my hat off to you. You just go for it. Did you get a tip off about this location? Even if you did it's hard on your own working out where to look. Bonza!!!!
Nah, its just about trying out new spots. Often I don't find anything which equals no video 😃
324 grams is my guess on the Jasper. Good luck everyone. It is a beautiful prize.
Good luck to all that tries to guess the weight of it!!!!!
1/2 pound for the jasper and I'm sure that second one would look nice polished up!
I hope that nautiloid(Nautilus) comes out great for you cause I love them when they are a fully complete one. Will you show it to us it you do get it out whole???
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Mamlambo : can you see the Fossil in that rock.
Me : Looking at the wrong rock ...
damn LOL this shit is the first thing that's really motivated me to check out coastal beaches LOL
Really cool fossils! Definitely made me in the mood for seafood for dinner! Good job!
You should sell some of the crab concretions you find! I’d love to try my hand at prepping one!
I don't sell any fossils, but thanks for the interest!
Nice work boys!
Thanks! :)
That nautiloid was incredible! How awesome to have those there to find. Cheers!
I must admit I have no idea what he was talking about but it was fascinating
Glad you enjoyed it Vicky!
Enjoy the videos. Thanks. Have a great day.
321 grams is my guess on the large jasper. But I'm more interested in that complete nautilus!
Loved the vid, I know you’ll find that penguin soon , can’t wait to see the crab prep video , everyone will enjoy seeing that emerge , keep going with the hard work we love it 👍😎🌴
I am impressed by your keen eye
Omg this is so cool I wanna check the beach near mine with my lil brother any tips on how I can find one for him he loves watching you on UA-cam and was the one who got me into watching you
Nice! I hope you find something!
I love you man..greetings from Lebanon
Thanks so much Michael! Hope you're doing well 😀
411 Grams, I'm going for the heavy side... Greetings from the other side!
Ur DEAD!!!
Those calcite crabs you find are truly epic man! 366 grams is my guess
Great vid
Thanks!
That penguin has to happen someday, it would be awesome. as for the jasper my guess is 153 grams.
One day perhaps🐧.🐎🌻✌️
I did end up finding one a couple of weeks ago!
It it viable to use a diamond saw to cut slices from the damaged ones? Just wondering what a cut and polished example would look like after cutting on a favourable axis?
I'm sure it would look pretty cool, I might try it one day on a damaged one.
I’ve recently got a kitten and called him jasper. Im guessing it’s around 50grams? No idea tbh 😅
Love your videos, I’m a newish subscriber 🤞🏻
Congrats! Jasper is a cute name!
Very cool vid. I use to collect rocks and minerals when I was younger. 8.5 ounces is my guess in the jasper
Don't fret. You will find that penguin when you least expect it.
as a kid I found heaps of these going fishing with dad, 50 years later I'm going back now that I know what it is
That's awesome!
@@MamlamboFossils without stumbling on your channel I would never have known. It made a big enough impact as a kid I saw that and immediately remembered
@@blythewarland6688 awesome!!! Thats really cool mate!
This was a great trip! A fossil hunt for a bucket list for me.
Good luck with the crab!
Thanks!
All the rocks are so pretty
I will say weights 11 Ounces thank you for such a great channel and great content I’m from New York but next time I’m around a rocky beach I will look around and see what I find lol. Thank you for your work
Andy I was thinking the same thing...I found some pieces that are coloured like that
Love your enthusiasm! 244.5 grams!
Such a relaxing video after a long day.
My guess for the Jasper is 290 grams.
“There are rocks here” hmm I had no idea haha
😂😂😂
It's a shame that Pingu didn't show up but that landscape is to die for! Well worth the trek :) I'll guess 155 grams on the jasper (ish lol)
Very cool!
Such a cool video! This is my first time watching and wow the fossils are incredible!
That crab one.........you're suppose to lick it. That's what Capt. Jack Sparrow did.
Id love the jasper, my guess is 325 grams.
That ear bones crazy
408 G for the Jasper .... Love your videos!!!
Great damn video my dude.
