RJB Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I really was hoping to find a Mursa crab in with all these little concs, but sad to say, no mursa crab. Some of these shrimp claws are full of little tiny crystals making them cooler than they should be, One even has its tail end!!! but I think all these will be going to the UK. If its not a complete specimen, I dont want it. I found a few cool little gastropods in these too. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 That's an awful lot of rocks you got there RJB. You better send some of them to me so you can concentrate on your house. If you believe everything you read, perhaps it's time for you to stop reading... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Hawkeye, theres only about 12 little concs left. I popped most of them open already. 90% of them get tossed. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micropterus101 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 RJB, I sharpened my tip with a belt or disc sander with carbide paper (the black stuff). Just turn slow and even fer round a sharp tip or touch on three sides for a angular sharp tip. fossil crabs website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use them for cutting and smoothing the concretionary material too. Crabfossilsteve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
