Having found lots of Tabulata fossils near the place I live I try to learn as much as I can about this ancient animal class. Thank you for the video.

I have found many specimens of tabulate coral in Illinois, always a fun find. I recently found a huge chunk of mostly solid quartz tabulate coral. Currently tumbling some bits that aren't full of honey comb voids. The rest of the specimen is really cool too. Thanks for this video!

[@EeeEee-bm5gx]

i always wondered what were the white nets in the shale from nearby mines. Maybe corals

[@SandySong-en5mv]

we are looking for a fossil coral minerals supplier in Asustralia with export permit

[@paleo1019]

Very nice (cam here!)

[@danakousah1442]

I have one like it, how can i know how old is it!

[@Benderisgreat219]

I have one that is completely crystallized, and sparkling all over. Would it be worth anything? Its the size of a golf ball

[@baustaurus2518]

Sir can you name that shell a life side of the honeycomb corals, a color is gold i think it is?

[@raccoonresident5760]

Omg I just found a piece today. In my yard! And tools, a 3D map of part of my city and maybe a piece of the owner of all the tools (it’s with police) and Dino bones and eggs, minus the shells..... can still see tiny bones poking thru. I think this site is gonna rival hell cat deposits? Did I say that right? And BC’s deposits of red fossilized Dino bones.
I think it’s a mine and industrial site for tools jewelry etc. I’ve found bits pointing to such.... any idea how to proceed?

Rugose Corals are the superior coral, everyone know this

[@megalithia9805]

Sorry @italianjob85, Heliolites are the best hands down. This is common knowledge

[@mr.binungoy7345]

I've found some shell an coral fossils from my own backyard. I wish i could identify and carbon date them.

[@alnnetto6405]
