Calcite Crystal Filled Fossils! Digging for Gorgeous Crystal Filled Clams and Whelks!

In this one, we head to a private site with our good friend Derek the Rock Master to hunt for some amazing calcite fossil specimens! Unfortunately, the site had eroded quite a bit during recent storms, so we had several hours of digging before we even saw our first specimen. That being said, the wait and work was well worth it, because the finds started to pile up after that! Gorgeous whelks, olive shells, moon snails, and clam shells all filled with fantastic honey colored dogtooth calcite crystals! It was a wonderful day, and I am thrilled we got some good specimens to bring home with us! After the hunt, we head back to the shop, where I break out the air scribe to prep our finds! I hope you all enjoy, and I will have another one out soon!
