Geodes form when groundwater filled with minerals seep into pockets in rock. The crystals form using the minerals and the water evaporates. These crystals can form around anything in the rock.

Always hated that beach as a kid lol cold and rocky but cant wait to go back as adult lol
Drop by and visit us when you can Mike!
Such a nice film, great work.
Glad you enjoyed it! We have a fossil event planned for Aug. 27 at the museum if you are interested in meeting two of the people in the film.
Beautiful specimens...I have a great fascination with fossilized plants and trilobites...
Very informative. Thank you. I fossil hound Lake Ontario and find all the same fossils as the ones you have.😊
The base structure for our region runs across Ontario. It just so happens that our shoreline reveals wonderful trilobites easily seen.
I so want to visit this site to see the fossils for myself. What an awesome array of fossils. Love.
When you visit the fossil beds drop by to the museum as well!
This is fascinating!!
I haven't bought Craigleith fossils but I have bought Craigslist fossils. 😆
Excellence !🙊🙉🙈🇺🇸🇬🇧🇷🇺🇮🇳🇨🇦🇳🇿
I live close by there but never been. I going tomorrow
Hope you enjoyed the visit!
