I Found Calcite Crystals Inside Fossil Shells in Florida! 🐚⛏️💎
I Found Calcite Crystals Inside Fossil Shells in Florida! 🐚⛏️💎
What a blast! We were invited to come down to hunt with our buddy Derek on this trip for druzy quartz crystals and then calcite crystals. It was a huge success! We found all sorts of cool pieces to add to our collections. Druzy crystals, calcite clams, whelks, etc. The calcite forms as calcium carbonate is picked up by groundwater and deposited into the hollow space in the shell during or after fossilization.

That clam fossil and welk are beautiful! Merry Christmas guys!
Nice hunt and some cool finds .
Loved the video, Chris you and Wild Kyle all ways find some, amazing fossils and minerals. And you make collecting fun, look forwards to, the next one, G’day from Aussie land
Might be a dumb question but what do you do with all that?
So who buys these crystals? How do you make a living off of crystal hunting?
Or do you just collect them for yourself?
Sweet finds, loved the UV light show!
are you single! ahaha i love u!!!
Rad stuff, was that out at Ruck’s Pitt?
Nice finds. I have hundreds of pounds of calcite I have found in veins in limestone creek beds in North Texas.
Fun video. And yes please make future ones a bit longer. 🙂 And a very Merry Christmas to you and yours!
We had to laugh about the cold water during the rinse of the clam. we are ice fishing in Minnesota. Snow and frozen ground are keeping us from finding minerals and fossils up here.
Paleo Cris is awesome! Very knowledgeable! I have learned a lot about fossil hunting. He inspired me to fossil hunt on my own. I just made a brand new vid about fossil hunting, come check it out! Thanks Chris for teaching me!
Merry Christmas, Chris.
Beautiful stuff, guys and gals! So glad I found your channel, one of the nicest things for me this year. Merry Christmas, and have a safe, fun New Year!
Awesome video! Looks like fossils are everywhere in Florida as long as you know where to look! You and Kyle do an awesome job of explaining what you find! most other YouTube channels lack your expertise!Thanks for sharing your adventures! I look forward to seeing more!
