Professional Fossil Hunter’s Luck At Lyme Regis.

  • 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 very much for the comments, I appreciate them. Here is some more information-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 October 2023 onwards ! 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. You’re 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 TH-cam called "Ammonite Lyme Regis."My channel on TH-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 TH-cam, Thanks BrandonLennon….. “Black Ven Landslide , Lyme Regis , 11th November 20l21

    When I was a girl in the early 19950's we lived at the other end of Cape Canaveral, Florida, from the launch pad. It was wonderful to see all the shells packed in chunks of coquina. I had so beautiful things but Dad sold them! We also went gem hunting. Dad was a tool & die designer and built a faceter that cut perfect angles. Interesting. Thanks for the video. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Good luck with many beautiful discoveries!
    Many decades ago when I was a child I found many red-bownish stones in the bed of a dry stream, with many of maximum 4-5 cm long (2 inches) fossils of flat snail shells and some conical snails shells also, at the foot of the Carpathian mountains in Romania. One of the stones that had an orange color, the size of a fist, had on the surface some kind of white stars about 5 mm in diameter, with over 6, mainly 12 rays that appeared to be in the cross section of some tubes, united in bunches. All the stone was polished by nature, and it seemed translucent and hard like a flint. It was of extraordinary beauty!
    Do you appreciate what type of stone were and what type of fossils they contained?

    • @LymeRegisFossils
      @LymeRegisFossils  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That sounds like one of the natural wonders you found too. They can be eroded by nature the fossils but still very beautiful 🤩

    • @popacristian2056
      @popacristian2056 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@LymeRegisFossils I forgot to say that in addition to the fossils, I also found some stones what looked like carved tools made from the same red-brown material, one of which was very carefully processed in the form of a spearhead.
      Unfortunately :( I feel guilty for my carelessness, because of which I no longer have any of the wonderful objects I discoveredf, for various reasons . But I have no doubt that there are many others in the same area. :)

    Is it because of volcanic ashes covered the sea then killed the livings and covered it ?

      I know it is lyme stone..but my wounder why its colore black...is it because of volcanic ashes droped down the sea then the seawaves carried it to the caost and covered the living creatures .
      This is my thinking..since we have like it in white colore away from volcanic activity.
