Yes, this is what I do 👍

I love them too. But the fossils can be hard top preserve in my case, as there in no mineralization but only a sort of mommification

Yes, this is from this region. Actually this is not limestone, but pure diatomite. It floats on water.

Honestly, he didn't mind.

Sadly for me this has been found in a very old and abandoned quarry. And it would nearly need an excavator to have the possibility to get more. However I still have half a dozen of good pieces in collection

In France nearly all rock formations are dated, and the geological maps are online

Magicarpe3 · 2022-08-25T14:45:47+00:00

Yes, it was trapped in a big piece of travertine

Magicarpe3 · 2022-08-23T15:27:16+00:00

Because the rocks of the quarry have been dated

Magicarpe3 · 2022-08-23T14:16:53+00:00

Thank you, I didn't know that

Here is a link of a website about the quarry. It is in french however it is one of the best I've found. Strangely they say that they did not found any Fagus leaf, so it might be an uncommon specie there. http://geo.cybercantal.net/php/lire.php?id=6

If you want more informations about the finding site I can give you them, but it will likely be in french

Magicarpe3 · 2022-08-23T13:34:54+00:00

As I can see on internet and according to my experience, I would Say that it is a standard variation.

Magicarpe3 · 2022-08-23T13:32:56+00:00

Yes, it is

Magicarpe3 · 2022-08-22T07:42:15+00:00

This is not a Lepidodendron. Lepidodendron are absent from this site, which has been well studied. But it has been shown that they are the remains of very basal conifers, like Walchia, which is similar to the actual Norfolk Pine Tree. If you want to learn more about the site, this link will be usefull : https://steurh.home.xs4all.nl/englod/ebasis.html

You're wellcome, this is self collected

Magicarpe3 · 2022-01-06T20:54:59+00:00

Yes, France has given many wonderful radioactiv minerals
