Jurassic Geology

The Jurassic Period is a major interval of Earth history, broadly spanning approximately 201.4 to 145 million years ago. It is widely recognised for its marine and terrestrial ecosystems, abundant fossil record and important sedimentary rocks. Fossils from Jurassic rocks can provide evidence of ancient life, changing environments and the long geological history preserved across the British Isles.

Dorset and Somerset are particularly interesting areas for fossil enthusiasts because they form part of the rich geological landscape of southern and south-western England. Their fossil heritage contributes to the wider study of Jurassic life and the environments that existed in the region during this important period of geological time. This collection brings together 13 fossil specimens from the Jurassic of the UK for appreciation, study and display.

Collector and Educational Display

The 1kg weight provides a generous group of specimens for a personal fossil collection. The fossils may be arranged in a cabinet, displayed on a shelf or used as a tactile teaching aid when discussing geological time, fossilisation and the history of life. The collection can also be an engaging gift for students, amateur geologists, fossil collectors and natural history fans.

As a mixed fossil assortment, each piece contributes to the overall character of the collection. The specimens are presented as a group rather than as a single named species or formation-specific sample, making the set well suited to collectors who enjoy variety and the opportunity to study different natural fossil appearances.
