ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY HELIX FOSSIL
I'm sure this has been said before but the living animal in the thumbnail and at 0:33 is Nautilus pompilius, which is a Nautiloid and not an ammonite as ammonites are extinct.
WOW! that is Spectacular, thank you for sharing and Lucky you to have the amazing chance to seen that beaty on your hands ll!
For how much do those great ones go? They are beyond beautiful
Tens of thousands of dollars for a specimen like she was holding.
@@alorindanya jesus
Lasts gem show here in Tucson they broke a new record. This year ( it is at the start of the year , late January to early March). I have no wholesale, however I could advise. In stones, they do believe their jewelry as the greatest. No, no, it needs improvement.
I have small ones for a hundred bucks
This is so cool i love all these videos these are perfect for my science class in school! Thanks so much for so much information!
My dad bought me a piece of ammolite a few days before my birthday.
Honestly going on an adventure of a lifetime to find gems sounds badass
An ammonite gemstone is my favorite gem stone
The same
I have one for a hundred bucks
I found SO MUCH SYNCHRONIZATION in this video because I purchased this exact same looking AMMOLITE shell today but it was under the name AMMONITE and you put in your video description AMMONITE but explained perfectly what AMMOLITE is. 🔮
This stone is one of my favorites😍
This channel is amazing
Why don't you mention how much ammolite costs? The specimen you were holding is museum quality and costs tens of thousands of dollars. Why don't you include that information? In the comments people think they can afford it!
I have some for a hundred bucks
I think your more of a mineralogist than a geologist. Which is even MORE interesting. Keep up the good work. (PS hey Natalie my name is also Nattaly but it's spelled like this).
Am I the only one that thought of Pokémon for some reason? Also flapjack
Nerddy Banana ya cuz there is a ammonite pokemon look up omynite
Such beautiful specimens! I found one once while rock hunting
I came here to comment Flapjack but this channel is so cool
it's dank AF, i love it
Literally the helix fossil. Praise it
Prase the helix
MatPat directed me to your channel. Awesome job!
that is so cool
Almost all bear paw ammonites don’t come out of the ground in perfect shape. They are either in peices or missing parts due to geological activity or predatory animals (mosasaur) from their time before extinction.
beautiful ammolite, how i wish i have a small piece with me.
All hail lord helix
That was amazing!!! Also, flapjack.
Gotta love living in Alberta I know I do
I love rocks and gems not the kind that are cut and polished i like the kind that look like they are fresh from the ground, i even have a rock collection and they are so pretty I love rocks more than most things and they are some of my most favorite things to study
We love rocks too!
Holy wow...
So if I found an ammonite fossil about 6 inches in diameter, (but dropped it and it broke into 4 pieces)what would it be worth?
it's sooooo beautiful!!!!
2:11 “little guy”
that is so beautiful! Is it opal? Or are the colors produced by the creature and then fossilized?
It's not opal ,it's ammolite a fossil gemstone That created with the fossilisation of the mother of Pearl of shells,it's composed of aragonite,same element of mother of Pearl but It's filled with silice and other minerals which give those colors
What happens to the gems and rocks after the video? Just wondering
JTV please make a video how sand rocks are made there weak and it looks like a normal stone but made out of sand and something else
Good thing U tell people to ring the bell in the new videos. Google changed the subscription on all my incoming publishing of the videos. I didn't get anthing from jtv for years. I have to go back in the Jtv archives. dwdE115
That thing is beautiful. I really wonder what those Amarirte would have tasted like, probably not very good. I don't like sea food anyway.
I had hoped for some interesting and useful information about ammolite, eg where are they on Mohs scale, are they made of the same stuff as mother of pearl , why all the colours? You told me nothing much 😢
Beautiful
Ammolite ( bfb rubys sister ) is older than ur most greatest grandpa and grandma
I wish I had a quarter for everytime I heard, "I was expecting bigger, but that's OK... ".
so this is all unaltered shell material right or is it replacement i know Ammonites who went through replacement are usually pyrite so its probably unaltered shell material
p.s. Flapjacks
Ammonites appeared at around 240 million years ago when dinosaurs appeared and went extinct at around 65 million years ago along with the dinosaurs. The largest species grew up to 9 FEET IN SIZE!!!
Wow, my favorite colors are red and green this suits me
0:17. That's what she said.
Gold medal How in the world did you get that.
Keshawn Jemison online
My Ammolite contains: Mookaite or Jaspis, And some sort of kwarts, and opal.
KajiRider1997 You spelt quartz wrong its q u a r t z not k w a r t s

Yay Canada
why are you saying ammolite? im confused
I'm a little late but ammolite is a beautiful gemstone that comes from Ammonites
Basically there shells turn into an opal-like material as they fossilized and the examples are shown in the video
Dude how did you get that??? Also, those... I'm like...five feet tall....I could use the big ones as a bed. 😶
I have some available
Theres a pokemon thats a ammonite its name is omynite
Now this one is as big as it gets bb
Praise Lord Helix
The only ammolite that is favorable is from Alberta or British Columbia Canada.
Canada
Yeah
flapjacks, plus this channel is so cool
If anybody wants some get ahold of me
Do you own an ammonite mine in southern Alberta?
I think its opal
She says what it is, Ammolite.
_And I thought _*_bismuth_*_ was slaying that _*_rainbow_*_ spectrum.._
I’m four and a half feet tall!!
Looks like stained glass.
FLAPJACK
"flapjack"
Eh say cost per quilate !!!!!!
How much????
Hundred bucks
@@idonthaveaname42 I promise it’s not bear paw ammonite.
Flapjack
F-f-FLAPJACK
Do you give cool gemstones to fans?
I want to be a paleontologist. I know that pteradactyl is fake while pteranodon and pteradactylus are real. Pterosaur and aquatic reptiles aren't dinosaurs and dimetrodon isn't a dinosaur either.
You're too young to know all this, lol.
Never stop learning young lady
