Typical Vulcanian Eruption! A lot of lava boms thrown up from the crater!

Here was a lucky little find from today’s fossil hunt on Charmouth beach. This is a pyrite ammonite of the species Echioceras raricostatum. They are preserved in very soft shale, as you can see, which means that they come out in one piece very easily. Usually, the sea pulls them out of the rocks and dumps them on the beach. This can easily damage or destroy them. This one has a thin calcite shell on top of the pyrite which would have been removed by the sea almost instantly if it had got to it before I did. This fossil is around 196 million years old.

I still remember how I found this lobster over 22 years ago. It was in the middle of the river where I picked up the loose concretion. I gave it one hit with my hammer and exposed the best Linuparus that I have ever found to this date. Simply an amazing feeling.
