Agatized Algae (AA8)
Notes specific to this specimen: Strange shape with a variety of colors. This is one of the more unusual specimens we’ve seen – it contains relic cracks from the collapse of the original structure and a variety of textures and colors. Which end was up? We cannot tell on this one! Zoom in on the bubbly side – it’s awesome!

Agatized Coral (AC4)
These unique fossils are preserved corals that lived in large reef systems in Florida and Georgia about 34 million years ago. After the corals died, they were buried in deep sediments where the original corallite structures began to erode away. In some cases, this resulted in hollow cavities that were then coated in translucent agate, forming carnelian geodes. In others, the agate replaced the solids and retained images of the coral structures. We are the oldest and most experienced source for these unique fossils. Our teams have been SCUBA diving for these corals since the mid 1970s.
Notes specific to this specimen: A very nice multi-chambered piece with a cut and polished carnelian agate face. It also has a natural opening on the other end. This specimen is mounted on native Suwanee Limestone – which is the matrix material these specimens weather out of. You won’t see that anywhere else.

Kona Dolomite (KONA10)
This authentic fossil specimen comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and Origin. In addition, an attractive and informative display card accompanies the specimen.
Notes specific to this specimen: This is an excellent sliced section showing multiple stromatolite colonies with distinct layers (laminae). The clear layering is unusual for this slightly metamorphosed material. It has a smooth back and a flat bottom so it stands up nicely.

Cerdito Prospect Rift Crystals (CP11)
Notes specific to this specimen: White druzy quartz with just a hint of purple dominates top of this specimen with some clear crystals as well. Sides show multiple healed fractures. Take a look at the cut bottom and you’ll see the very graphic splitting of the matrix and the subsequent infilling.

Crystalized Clam (OK3)
Crystalized fossil clams like this are exceptionally rare. These clams lived in a shallow sea that covered most of Florida 2 million years ago. A sudden storm event buried the clams, trapping cavities inside. When the shells began to dissolve, it provided the material necessary to grow calcite crystals in the open spaces. These unusual fossils are known from only one site, an old quarry near Lake Okeechobee. The quarry played out and flooded in 2007. We excavated this in 2023. An attractive and informative display card accompanies the specimen.
Notes specific to this specimen: Great honey calcite crystals repalcing the clam shell trapped in matirx. This piece has a sawn flat bottom so it stands up nicely on its own

Fossil Sand Dollar and Clam (KH7)
These well-preserved clams and sand dollars lived in a shallow sea that covered the San Joaquin Valley for millions of years. During storms the animals became buried in sediments which preserved the shells. Under heat and pressure, the shells altered into calcite, yet preserved their fine detail. Later, due to movement of the nearby San Andreas fault, the whole area was uplifted, becoming the Kettleman Hills. The Hills became famous for its oil in the 1920s. But the oil has since played out and the land is returning to its former native environment. We’ve polished the primary shells to show their beauty and detail. Iron and petroleum color the shells. We have spent years mapping the Hills and are the only people who know where to find these unique fossils.
NOTE: Excellent group of clams with one nice large polished sand dollar. An attractive and informative display card accompanies the specimen.
