Ammolite, which shines in seven colors Dinosaur bones replaced by opal trilobites that look as if they have been covered in gold dust shells with calcite crystals growing inside. wood replaced by agate*, amber the color of the setting sun coprolite (fossilized poop) with a pattern that looks like paint dripping into water. This book presents about 140 breathtakingly beautiful fossils. The author, an expert in paleontology*geology and geology, gently explains the process of creating beautiful fossils. This is a book for adults and children alike to enjoy the beauty and mystery of nature.
