Madagascar Ammonite - Sliced
Madagascar is renown for producing beautifully preserved ammonite fossils from both the Jurassic and the Cretaceous periods. Many of them have been agatized, and the inner chambers are often preserved as hollow cavities lined with crystals. They are particularly beautiful when cut and polished to reveal this inner chamber detail and mineralization. Ammonite fossils came in a range of sizes, from tiny species only a couple of centimeters across, to large ones reaching over two meters in diameter.
