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.

Geodized Brachiopods
There's no cure for Gold Fever, but the symptoms are treatable.

Re: Geodized Brachiopods
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.

These are the geodized fossils.
