Fossils

Definition of Fossils as it relates to Collectibles, Rocks and Minerals, Meteorites

Fossils are remnants or traces of prehistoric organisms preserved in petrified form or as imprints in rock. They offer valuable insights into the earth's history, providing evidence of past life forms and ancient environments. Fossilized remains can take various forms, including bones, teeth, shells, and leaves, which are often found in sedimentary rocks. The study of fossils, known as paleontology, allows scientists to understand the evolution and extinction of species, as well as changes in the earth's climate and geography over millions of years. Fossil hunting can be a rewarding hobby for collectors, who appreciate these ancient artifacts for their scientific, historical, and aesthetic value.
