Awesome vid. Kyle I think you might want to watch some videos about gold prospecting in rivers, that will give you the reason for the pyrite is there and not in the other spot, hint, its density and hydrodynamics. thanks for the awesome content.
I can't tell you how excited I get seeing you find fossils. I'm living my best life through your videos! I'm just a tired, old nurse trying to make my way, but these videos are awesome! Thank you!
Thanks dude. Unlike other channels you show all the candid conversations you have with your friends and the processes of getting to a spot and the struggles and joys of making finds. No B S here and the excitement you and your friends have after a find feels so organic. I wish you luck.
I appreciate this comment a lot! Thank you! It's very important to me to make videos that show an accurate representation of what treasure hunting is like and to bring y'all on the adventure with me!
A kid in a candy store was my first thought when you were surface hunting, but I soon came to realize that "Kyle on a gravel bar" is a metaphor that depicts even more joy. I good to see you teaming up with Brandon and Heath.
At 21:19 you have what looks like some river tumbled marine reptile or dinosaur bone fragments right next to your hand. Pyrite forms from fossils as the iron phosphate in organic remains seperates out into iron oxide, sulphur, and phosphorous, leading to the formation of iron oxide minerals and native sulphur. Sometimes these two go through secondary mineralisation to form iron sulphates :)
Congrats on your first Ptychodus tooth, Kyle! Some of my favorites to find. That’s a killer creek y’all found as well. Also, that tooth at 8:30 is actually a symphyseal tooth to a Squalicorax (crow shark), aka the teeth in the center of the jaws in between the tooth rows. Explains why it was shaped so weird.
Hi Kyle! I know why the pyrite was all in one area... I know you've wondered about creeks' material sorting capabilities before, like when your wife found three pennies in one place. The reason is actually pretty simple, but it's not something people tend to think about/picture because it generally happens when the waters are swollen and faster-flowing during rains/storms. Any object that is lifted and moved by the water takes a certain amount of energy to do so. Objects with similar specific gravity require similar amounts of energy to move. When the energy amount in a running stream's water reduces rapidly (most often because of moving over an obstacle [large rock] or moving around a bend in the creek), any objects that are too heavy fall out of suspension, in that specific area, while other objects continue to move with the water. That is how rivers sort objects into sections! The most common objects found together are metallic ones. Notice that you also saw the iron nail in the same batch as the pyrite.
I found a bunch of Cretaceous shark teeth in NJ. Your teeth appear to be the same species. That would be goblin sharks, porbeagle sharks, sand tiger sharks and two types of crow sharks. The larger one being squailcorax pristodontus and the smaller one squailcorax kaupi.
Congrats on the shell crushing shark tooth find. Nice to see you hanging with Brandon, I enjoy some of his videos as well. You guys stay safe and watch out for those cottonmouth’s!
Do you do _mudlarking?_ I'm in Alabama, stayed in Bristol, worked for GKN Aerospace/Airbus in Avondale, 2000. Mostly do river (Tallapoosa!) paddleboarding enthusiast/instructor/outfitter; just saying "Hi!"
A fun video to eat dinner and watch. Some fun finds and 2 new to me channels to subscribe to! I also have to google the shell crushing shark to see what they looked like.
I'm thinking the shell crushing shark teeth would make super awesome pendants as well as being an awesome story moment of the 66 million year old shell crushing sharks. I'm now so curious about them! Nice adventure! Thank you for sharing.
Great video! BTW what state are you in? I grew up in Northern Kentucky on a farm and Brachiopods and crinoid columns with all kinds of other stuff was lying around everywhere. When I was about 2 my father and I were walking around and I reached down and picked up a shell and asked him that could be there because I knew it was from the ocean. He explained how the earth was covered with ocean millions of years ago and so forth. Hence my lifelong interest in Geology and fossils. 👍☮️🌞🦈
Wow Kyle, Alabama shark tooth hurt with Brandon and Heath that’s just incredible. Can you imagine what it’s gonna be like in Florida or the Carolinas or Tennessee? Want to sell that water recedes from the storms there’s gonna be so much out on the surface. Wow incredible thank you again, my friend for a wonderful videoand I’ve got to see what you got on your channel for sale. I would love some of them sharks teeth.❤❤❤❤❤ keep on fossil hunting. Every little treasure is awesome so keep on doing sending love and prayers stay safe be careful and keep on❤❤
Just an Old Sourdough from the apex of the Gulf of Alaska. Might I suggest you try an inflated truck innertube to transport your gear and aid in sifting. Might not need to bend down so low either!
The theory of uniformitarianism is so interesting. I don't agree with it, but so many do. It has some evidence to support it, but it also is missing some pieces.
Fun video, Kyle! Great finds in there...I have never gone hunting for shark teeth before. like everyone else on these comments, I would to do that with you one day!!
There’s a Cretaceous deposit in southeast Missouri… I’m hoping to get to that sometime. Hopefully soon. I’d love to find a mosasaur tooth and that IS a possibility
It's great to be watching you again, Kyle. Oh, how I wish I was there wearing my velcro sole super uper non slippy shoes, maintaining my dignity while fossil hunting 😊
Boy, that spot is richer than Conecuh River below Point A dam. Maybe even Peace River. Wish i knew where it is but at 76 i doubt ill get to go hunting again.
Awesome finds! Those Goblin shark teeth look similar to some I've found on the beaches near Ponte Vedra, FL...would they have been in northern Florida too, or is it a different species?
@@christianmarshall6250 we haven't had the right water levels for that site all year. We keep getting too much rain. 😭 Hopefully this winter we'll be able to go.
Great finds! I'd be curious to see what's in those pyrite nodules! The ones in Yorkshire are really big with ammonites in them. They just hammer them open. Idk how you'd even get into those without damaging the possible fossil inside. Unless you had fossil prep tools like the scribes or whatever they are called
Where abouts are you in Alabama? I live in Louisiana and I am in and out of Alabama A LOT! I would love to go exploring when I got a few hours to kill. I haul equipment for my job. There are times I just need to get out of the truck. This is perfect.
In Yorkshire England they get a lot of those pyrite nodules. Often they contain fossils in them. I have also seen them polished and man they look stunning. So smoothe and shiny.
My favorite Alabama fossil was always blastoids. I used to find them by the bowl full. But all the best places were ruined - the ditches are now concrete. The best spots are now gated off with expensive homes built on them. What few places are left are picked over. It’s so sad.

I reference to a previous episode...Hamm's and Schmidt were breweries from St.Paul Miinnesota started in the mid 1800's
Thank you for this. Being mobility challenged puts a damper on my nature walks now. Living vicariously through your videos.
Yep!
I can't tell you how excited I get seeing you find fossils. I'm living my best life through your videos! I'm just a tired, old nurse trying to make my way, but these videos are awesome! Thank you!

@@WILDKYLE I've been watching your channel for at least 5-6 years. I went out and found my first shark tooth after watching one of your videos.
Just teeth?
A kid in a candy store was my first thought when you were surface hunting, but I soon came to realize that "Kyle on a gravel bar" is a metaphor that depicts even more joy. I good to see you teaming up with Brandon and Heath.
I had been wanting to take you there for years! So glad we finally made it happen!
I had a blast man! Thanks so much for making it happen. Can't wait to do it again!
Hey Brandon! Great adventure!
@@justjoy4239Much appreciated!!

Yep! Chris isn’t the only one jelly! That’s amazing!
We went to a creek not far from there a couple of months ago . I found 15 Ptychodus teeth and a Polygurus Ptychodus that day.
Cliff thanks again for being cool with us going!
Thanks for the fun adventure, Sir Kyle! Cool to see the differences and similarities to the Florida creeks you hunt.
16:49 a Smoker arrow head?! Black and about 4-5” long towards bottom left under rocks
Holy cow it is hahaha
Glad I was not the only one who saw it
Man I hope he didn't miss that under the pyrite!

That was a great creek for shark teeth. It is always spectacular to cross an item off of your bucket list. Thanks for taking us along!
I couldn't believe how many were there! It's really an incredible location. Thanks for watching! 😊
Brandon’s is a beauty too! 👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome video! Congratulations on all your magnificent finds!
Thank you Lisa!
I really enjoyed the collaboration with these guys. I follow Brandon. I'll have to check out Heath😊

WOOHOO! Another wild Kyle adventure!
❤️❤️❤️
Cool finds guys and great and informative video.. thanks for sharing
Thanks for the adventure !
Glad to see all 3 of yall hunting fossils. Keep them coming Kyle
It was so fun to find some stuff that's different than what we get in Florida!
Good morning my friend from Greece, keep going strong the amazing videos you make!!
Lovely finds! Beautiful teeth!
Congrats on your beautiful new addition to your collection

Oh, good to see you out with Brandon again! 😃
Two of my faves.

What fantastic finds you all got. I have never heard of a shell crushing shark. New to me and very fascinating. I love when you go fossil hunting.
Love your vids ,hifrom Bristol uk xxx

I appreciate it Joy! 😊
When you look at the teeth like this, it is easy to understand why once they bit anything it was theirs. So enjoyable to watch!
Great finds! Thank you for sharing your adventures!
Sweet spot! ♥
Great day!
Awesome boys 👍💪🏻🍺

this is so coooooool
Great finds!!
I am so jealous. Even I could find shark’s teeth when they’re laying out everywhere. Great video!! Thanks!
That is so awesome!!! Those are incredible finds!!!
Amazing finds, guys !!!!😎👍
Great video, love it all !!✌️🍀⛏️⛏️
Great video WildKyle 🦈
Amazing !! Thanks for sharing Kyle 🙂
Wildkyle do you have geological training or paleo training. Being a geophysist I am impressed with your knowledge
I don't! Just been passionate about it, and still learning!
That place is amazing! I love learning about the sharks that were there! Thanks!
Thank you Morgan! Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome! This is how it's like fossil hunting in NJ .
awesome finds man!
Those shell crushing teeth are beautiful!!! I have never seen anything like them!!! ❤
Loved the sharks teeth and fossils you found. 😊
Love your adventures!
Hi from NY,As always another great video.
Thanks

Awesome teeth, Kyle! I'm happy you found a ptychodus, that's so cool!❤
Thank you Cynthia! ❤️
18:13 I have a bunch of those that I've collected.😊
If you wanna find shell crusher sharks come to austin texas.😊
Texas is on the list for sure! I'll make it one day!
Fun video, Kyle! Great finds in there...I have never gone hunting for shark teeth before. like everyone else on these comments, I would to do that with you one day!!
Where is Natalie! She would have loved this!! Amazing finds. Thanks Kyle for another awesome video ❤❤
She had to work 😭😭😭 We're gonna make sure we get her out here!
Love the pyrite! All good day!❤
Looked like fun!
That is why arrow heads are sarated !!! They also picked up shark teeth!!!! 🤫
How excitement said it all! Great video. I'd love to find sharks teeth.
There’s a Cretaceous deposit in southeast Missouri… I’m hoping to get to that sometime. Hopefully soon. I’d love to find a mosasaur tooth and that IS a possibility
I'd be down for a Cretaceous adventure next time I'm up that way!
I would LOVE of the Pyrite lumps!!!
Beautiful creek!awesome finds!are the pyrite nodules coprolites?
7:45 that looks to me like a woodrat tooth, lots of large woodrats here in SoCal and I most often see them in owl droppings
It's great to be watching you again, Kyle. Oh, how I wish I was there wearing my velcro sole super uper non slippy shoes, maintaining my dignity while fossil hunting 😊
Hi Brandon.
Hey Dennis!
@@adventurearchaeology hey Brandon.
I’ve never seen those shell crushers before,cool!
Good day be in the creek👍
Good nail cleaner teeth😅
Wow
Boy, that spot is richer than Conecuh River below Point A dam. Maybe even Peace River. Wish i knew where it is but at 76 i doubt ill get to go hunting again.
Loved that vid.
Only teeth we find in wales🏴 UK Are sheep..🐑😄
22:02 there were two you didn’t pick up! For shame Kyle! For shaaaaaame!!!
Awesome finds! Those Goblin shark teeth look similar to some I've found on the beaches near Ponte Vedra, FL...would they have been in northern Florida too, or is it a different species?
I found shell crusher tooth in limestone beds in southwest Kansas.
I had really been hoping for more agatized coral vids over the summer. Maybe next year
@@christianmarshall6250 we haven't had the right water levels for that site all year. We keep getting too much rain. 😭 Hopefully this winter we'll be able to go.
I search a chinois location that has the clay like that. I have great luck squishing and crumbling the clay to feel what’s in it.
Is this before the Hurricane?
After!
Enjoyed seeing you guys together. When is diving season? You must be hankering to go out on a bone hunt.
Congrats! Alabama- I didn’t know that was an option! Are you N,S, E or W? What a clear shallow creek! Awesome!!
Kinda like west-central I'd say! Near the Mississippi line!
@@WILDKYLE Thank you. I found Awesome Crinoids recently up in Alpena, MI from your info. Great Fun. I adore Sharks teeth!

It's the shark dentist office!
@16:19 you missed a big one on the left side against the side of the sifter
Do they have omar stones there? Thought i saw one in screen. Hey from michigan
,@Kyle. You are seeing teeth I see arrowheads or points@6:58 top right corner I seethe chipping sticking out from under mud? Check it out
