@Zaiden Mario bot

@Rogelio Lewis oh andddd, bot.

Jerebrine Same

@Carter Taylor I don’t ever remember what this was but your probably right

thanks man!

Evan Grimble it's due to morons digging with a screwdriver

@@ericsgreyhairwisdom5799 at least he knows his shark teeth besides what could you do

@@hilariomendoza1784 What can I Do? Hmmmmm . In relation to finding shark teeth, nothing. You can't argue with results.

Not a big enough audience😪

on of the best arrowheads i ever found on land!

+ANNA MANN i am proud to be entertainment on your rainy day. I hope you feel better!

+blackriverfossils i want to find some shark tooth but korea have no shark tooth so please can you send me some big megs and some whale tooth please send me

you can find fossil shark teeth in Holland. Lots of collectors hunt there, and some find megalodon teeth.

johan gustafsson I am also from sweden and i would Love that to, but do you now Some other places i sweden where it is posible to go to? I mean, the only plays that I can travel to is "ivö klack", can you Please help!?

what state

Juana Frausto If you mean the state that I'm live on/at i Sweden it is "Skåne"

Bronze3Q 4k Hej jag är också från Sverige och letar också efter bra ställen att hitta coola fossiler på :)

thanks! that spear was such a fluke find!

@@blackriverfossils I hope you and friends are safe from this storm. Maybe once it is past new material will be available for searching. So you look during colder weather?

@@para1324 thanks. we will go out and look but there wasn't as much rain as we thought it was going to be. we will hunt land sites all year around when they are available, we just don't dive in the winter.

Indian Trace could go either way. our formations have been washed around by the ocean so its possible that the teeth tumbled some distance before coming to rest where we found them. it is also possible that the reformulation was not chaotic and the teeth are associated. either way they have found good homes now!

Understood and great thoiughts! Keep finding!

I have the whole set of arrow heads and I don't know any XD

Neat, thanks! :D How do you know that? Professional, or hobbyist? :) In the Ozarks (Buffalo River area) there are tons of arrowheads pop up after a good rain.

I actually have a weird arrowhead that looks like it's old but I don't know what style it is. Can you help? It looks like it's a diamond shape that's wide and thick with what looks like the bottom part of a triangle connected at the bottom.

coulda been us. we didn't get out much last year the river was high almost the whole season. fingers crossed for 2021!

I went to a creek in Greenville,NC and surprisingly found a 2 inch great white tooth. I almost had a heart attack

Dragon 555 I've been to that creek - its a good spot. One of my friends found a 5 inch megalodon tooth there! I thought he was going to have a heart attack too.

there are excursions in the charleston area but I don't operate them.

Tkermy me too!

Tkermy imagine me I live in India 🇮🇳

TheBlondeSquirrel i do not own that land, it is private property. if I did own it, I'd be out there digging it up right now!

Yea I bet you don’t even go fossil hunting

A screwdriver is one of the most perfect tools

+Alexander Huijsmans thank you! I did not take material from this site to search for micros but I have from others. The formation at this site was reformulated many times so its not the best to search for tiny teeth. We have an oligocene deposit here called the Chandler Bridge that has never been disturbed since it was the ocean bottom and that is the one I search.

thanks!

Offtrailed Dino I've tried a spade in the past but i couldn't get it into the formation. the rocks are compacted so the only way we've found to effectively do it is a screwdriver to dig in between the gravel.

@@blackriverfossils Have you tried a gardening rake? I cringe every time I see you dig into the fossil with the screwdriver. The tines on this can bracket the tooth and dig around it. www.amazon.com/Homes-Garden-Bend-Proof-Cultivator-Stainless/dp/B07MGTTZ6S/ref=asc_df_B07MGTTZ6S/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309782363485&hvpos=1o2&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9952494227877378869&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9012122&hvtargid=pla-634034395402&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=65403110321&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=309782363485&hvpos=1o2&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9952494227877378869&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9012122&hvtargid=pla-634034395402

Dude , good luck getting somebody to give you that info . I’ve been asking for years about info like that and Indian artifacts and the best I get is look for water 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

that would probably be tough enough but it needs a tip to be able to dig in between the rocks. a bull point chisel would do the job.

Connor Hibbs it was back in May

I was out there searching like crazy! I was trying to find the correct layer to look through but never ran into some nice teeth only some small ones and pieces :(

Connor Hibbs It has been 10 years since I collected a site like this. I wish they came around more often but they truly are rare.

That is truly incredible! Lucky you! I wish I found just one of those teeth!

fossilera.com

Oh it's for buying shark teeth

+Cujucuyo i'll check that out - i've tried all kinds of things over the years to limit damage to the teeth but they are so fragile and the formation is so hard it is next to impossible.

blackriverfossils Try it, it really is great for digging without damaging your finds, I use one for metal detecting: www.jimmysierra.com/tools_treasurescoopC.html - You could also get a Ball Tipped Coin Probe instead of a screwdriver, the ball tip won't do damage if you accidentally scrape your find, specially with teeth enamel.

+Cujucuyo It looks like plastic. I see why that would be ideal for detecting but we are digging in a compacted gravel formation that is commonly as hard as asphalt. Sometimes we can't even get unto it with a sledge hammer and pry bar.

I have never found a 7 inch megalodon tooth

Yes I have it in my room

blackriverfossils one day you will I believe you can

Jim Witkoplaw il

Colton Smith show it on your channel then

yes the ocean level used to be much higher than it is now. giant sharks lived where I live now. they lost their teeth and i am finding them on the prehistoric ocean bottom.

Holy shit.... thats insane... I actually live on the AirForce base here in Charleston... Had no clue people are finding fucking giant shark teeth around here.....

yo how old are some of these teeth?

+Ultimate Heel you're right - patho is just slang for pathologic which does mean deformed. Sorry I'm not as clear as I should be!

+blackriverfossils Thanks so much, man! Love the channel! Keep up the vids!

+MarkedbyMistakes i jump down in almost every hole in the ground I see. Most of them are worthless but once in a while, I find a spot like this. there is always a danger when you get down into a hole that the edge can collapse though so you have to be careful.

Swedish Fish yes, he has

UltraCakePlays i don't know, sorry. the only place I have ever collected in CA was Bakersfield

I usually hunt for hours at a time, several times per week. Sometimes I go months without finding a megalodon tooth. That's why this spot was so special, because it was loaded with them.

Tnx responding! Thats whta I thought😂

neither. but it was down the road from there.

a spoon would work in some spots, but in most areas the formation is hard so a spoon would bend if you tried to dig with it.

blackriverfossils huh interesting what about using something like there's this thing that's a blackhead remover but it's got a tiny hook shape so I guess maybe using one of those or something similar to that would work or not I mean you guys do this a lot

what is the right tool for digging in cemented clay and gravel?

Sifters work best

no megalodon teeth can be found on nearly every contintent. Not sure about Antarctica but I wouldn't be surprised if they were there too.

+Mr.PlushWinner I've been collecting my whole life so I've seen a lot of teeth. I just know what they are through reading, talking to others, and experience.

CORRECTS YOU great question! There are two ways I know of. If it was a break a long time ago, the color will be consistent across the entire tooth whereas a recent break will be a different color because the interior of the fossil will show. Also, a recent break will be rough, sharp on the edges, and sometimes jagged or sharp because it won't have had any time to wear naturally.

blackriverfossils Thanks.

blackriverfossils Love ur video's keep it up

+LycanthropicArt you grew up in a great place! Unfortunately I don't know any places in the upstate to collect, though there are surely fossils to be found there. Happy hunting!
