My best friend has been wanting to get out fossil hunting for while , so Monday we went to sight 1 shown on this website.http://www.vasichkominerals.com/Georgetown.html We collected several nice fossils and cut open the not so nice ones to see if they were geodized. We found 4 that were geodized , 3 contained Calcite and 1 had Calcite with Dolomite. I will post some pictures if I can get some good closeups.

I finally got a chance to get some pictures and get them posted.

These are the fossils we decided were keepers. Some are very nice and others were kept just because we liked them.
