Today was more of an exploring adventure than a focussed fossil hunt, but I do find some really cool fossils! The crab I find is very interesting, I’m not sure what species it could be, will have to prep it and find out!

The anchor artifact is also really interesting, it shows more signs of being worked than the previous one I had found and the design looks more in keeping with the ones I see online that have been found in New Zealand.

Thanks to everyone that has been sending me photos to use in the slide show, I love seeing all the finds!

Please email me pictures of your finds that you want featured to: mamlambo82@gmail.com

I also have a rockhounding channel which features agate and petrified wood hunting which you can find here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyIYDaFNKo2UHkJg7mlwRQQ
