THIS excited about this particular fossil. it’s Lonsdaleia floriformis, an extinct species of rugose coral (commonly known as horn coral) from the early Carboniferous period, 359 to 323 million years ago, when warm, shallow tropical seas supported vast coral reefs. #fossilhunting

A piece of worked flint that I found on the Yorkshire coast near Whitby last September has been recorded by the Portable Antiquities Scheme as Mesolithic to Bronze Age, 10,000 BC - 1000 BC. I’m extremely pleased. https://t.co/8JpqjdIVNy

a pilgrimage to see the unconformity at Siccar Point, where, in 1788, Scottish geologist James Hutton proved deep time. it took 65 million years for the underlying Greywacke to fold, tilt, and erode before the Old Red Sandstone was deposited on top. https://t.co/eAoHkKPFXy
