£14.40

Experience a remarkable piece of Earth’s history with this genuine UHLIGELLA iridescent fossil ammonite, preserved with a stunning Mother of Pearl shell finish. This captivating fossil is from the Albian Stage of the Early Cretaceous Period (approximately 113 to 100 million years ago), sourced from the fossil-rich regions of Madagascar.

Geology & Origin:

During the Early Cretaceous, Madagascar was home to shallow marine environments perfect for ammonite populations. As these creatures thrived and eventually fossilized, mineral processes preserved their delicate shells. In exceptional cases like this, the original aragonite layers survived, creating an iridescent “Mother of Pearl” effect that shines with vibrant colors under the light.

Fossil Type & Species:

  • Type: Fossil Ammonite (Extinct marine mollusc)
  • Species: Uhligella sp.
  • Preservation: Excellent, with vivid iridescent mother of pearl

Features:

  • 100% genuine, natural fossil specimen

Cretaceous Information

The Cretaceous Period (145–66 million years ago) was the final era of the Mesozoic, marked by the dominance of dinosaurs and the rise of flowering plants. It had a warm, greenhouse climate, with high sea levels that created vast shallow inland seas. Marine life flourished, including mosasaurs, ammonites, and rudist reefs, while the land was ruled by iconic dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus rex, Triceratops, and Spinosaurus. Mammals and birds diversified, and insects thrived. The period ended with the mass extinction event, likely caused by an asteroid impact, wiping out the dinosaurs and paving the way for the rise of mammals in the Cenozoic.
