  • Let’s go fossil hunting along the Jurassic Coast. I am fossil hunting West of Lyme Regis today.I’m going fossil hunting along the Jurassic Coast at low tide. I’d like to find some of the beautiful little pyrite ammonites that wash out along the beach at low tide. Little nuggets of gold delight, saved from the shifting sands. I recommend wearing safety glasses and sturdy rubber gloves when hammering the right little rocks. I am going to show you a video of me splitting an ammonite out of a limestone rock.I have spent along time sizing up the manner in which certain ammonites 'pop' out of the rock. So look and learn how i spend alot of time sizing the rock up. Fossil hunting really does take hours of patience and persistence. I’m going to show you me looking for those ammonite bearing rocks after Christmas time. Remember the cliffs are dangerous and liable to fall suddenly and without warning. Keep away from the dangerous cliffs, the best fossils are washed out onto the beaches at low tide, by the sea's actions. Look out for the slippery seaweed on the ledges and rocks. I offer fossil walks along the Jurassic Coast on the following website, so feel free to take a look at the website I made, with our online fossil walks ------www.lymeregisfossilwalks.com There is a fossil collecting code of conduct in place along the Jurassic Coast. Thanks karsten Genzel for the Eoderoceras sp. ammonite chamber, that was a really well polished ammonite fragment you did.

    I am on the Ludlowville plate formation just outside Ithaca NY by Ludlowville falls. The fossils here are special. They are from the Devonian Period about 350 million years old. What is special about the formation is that invertebrates like jellyfish can and have been found. Its assumed a lot of yet to be named species are in this fossil plate. I go digging every day. There are some wonderful well detailed trilobites if you are lucky. Lots of crinoids, sea lillies and Brachiopods. I once found a Brachiopod with a 2 mm pearl. White and iridescent. I didn't know that was a thing. I once found what looked very much like a rattlesnakes rattle cut in half vertically. About the size of an adult thumb. Any idea what this might have been? Also do you have any pointers you would be willing to share that would help me in identifying some of these very uncommon invertebrates that are difficult to spot and look almost like plant matter? Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.

      Sounds like a lot of fun finding the fossils where you are. The trilobites must be a good prize to get hold of . You could send me some pictures if you like 👍🏻

    I'm going on a vacation to south west England early July and I'm planning to spend a few days fossil hunting. I've only been collecting in Sweden previously so I'm not at all familiar with the geology or how to think about the tides. It will be exciting, just hoping for decent weather! Other than the beaches closet to Lyme Regis, do you think Pinhay Bay or some other part of the coast would be good to visit for fossil hunting?

      I have put some information in a standard reply I do, down below for you. I’ve got a good link to a really interesting fossil collecting video I made about fossil hunting. I have created a standard reply for the fossil walks at the moment. I am also in my shop in Lyme Regis running that a lot of the time. I will be fossil walking if you so wish to try this activity during July 2023 Sorry we have no availability for fossil walks until then.Nigel Clark local authour he does the fossil walks at times he may have passed you my way . He gets very busy like me in the holidays . Some one I recommend for the fossil walks is @mikeharrisonsfossils on Instagram his mobile no. is 07526563997. Your in safe hands on a fossil walk with MIke as he is a regular on the beach looking for fossils at low tide ! We have a video on UA-cam called "Ammonite Lyme Regis."My channel on UA-cam is “ Lyme Regis Fossils ,” if you’d like to view that please see the video I mentioned it really shows you how to find fossils properly at low tide- along the Jurassic Coast. You need a tide table book or knowledge of when it’s low tide here at Lyme Regis. You can go out an hour before low tide and hour after low tide looking East of Lyme Regis on the 2008 landslide . Thats a good place to sieve for fossils . We sell sieves at 7 Drakes Way , Lyme Regis DT7 3QP . Come to our shop for any more information you need on fossil collecting. We can give you the most up to date news possible on where to look and what to do on Lyme Regis East beach. Good luck on the beach and don’t venture near to the cliffs . The cliffs are dangerous and liable to fall suddenly and without warning. The sea does the work for you washing the fossils out of mudslides and landslips.You have more beach to look at during low tide along the Jurassic Coast .Please see our video below on UA-cam, Thanks BrandonLennon….. “Black Ven Landslide , Lyme Regis , 11th November 2021

      ua-cam.com/video/LYAJ5rQQRVI/v-deo.html this video shows you how to really look for the iron pyrite ammonites on the 2008 Lyme Regis landslide at low tide ! Beware of the dangerous cliffs that are liable to fall suddenly and without warning ⚠️.

      A fossilised ichthyosaur jaw an ancient marine sea creature that has fossilised. I’ve got one like this in the Lyme Regis museum people can see it’s a bit bigger .
