  • A bit of an experiment this one - I took advantage of a break in the weather to do some ammonite splitting with my son to put out a few shorts and a viewer asked for a bit more substance than just the eye candy - so here is some science. I admit i've cobbled this together with my rudimentary video editing skills but let me know what you think in the comments

    Very educational Matt.

    Always nice to have examples to show and explain the history.
    Im a visual learner primarily, and this has been one of my favourite videos..
    Maybe a 5mins dac vid, 5min hildi, 5min elli etc. Once all done, combine into a large video from the start of the ammonite to its almost loss.
    Again many thanks, awesome video

      I will probably do a stratigraphy video in he future when I have enough specimens.

    I do like the Schlaifhausen Dacs, very distinctive preservation.

      Yes I want to go here one day and take a look in the fields. Very similar to our junction bed but much better preservation

      @@fossiliferous the big multis are reportedly all collected now but you still see singles and fragments turning up. It's close to Buttenheim and Eggolsheim too so you could go looking for the white Pleuros there on the same trip.

      @mosmarb that is the plan. You can always get lucky also but I doubt I would find a big multi without alot of time spent looking and perhaps research of the less commonly collected areas

    Some are even hollow and will smash like an egg if, say, fired at devastatingly high speed from a polishing wheel like a cannon ball.

      You are not wrong! But was my pronunciation all correct!

      Your pronunciations were spot on 😅 loved the science mate cheers, ive never seen anything like this in any other video on fossil hunting on the Yorkshire coast 👍explained really well so even i can absorb all that information 😊 i can't praise the video enough mate, im looking forward to more science in the future 👍

    Very intresting thanks for putting that vid together👍, what causes the actual noduel to form around the ammonite, is it a chemical reaction from the ammonites decay or somthing else, i offten wounder🤔

    • @fossiliferous
      @fossiliferous  6 месяцев назад +2

      Maybe a video for another time but it is to do with the calcium released from the decaying organism that cements together the material that makes up the nodule.

    • @terrydodsworth7350
      @terrydodsworth7350 6 месяцев назад

      Sounds a good idea from death to fossil would be great, is there a reason why alot dont seem to be in noduels and offten in random shaped rocks, look forward to the vid if you do one, love the lincolnshire dac multi 👍
