GASTROPOD FOSSILS FOR SALE

Gastropod fossils are remnants of ancient snails and other mollusks that once thrived in various aquatic and terrestrial environments. Gastropods, part of the class Gastropoda, have a distinctive, spiraled shell that is usually coiled in one plane, though some have unique shapes such as elongated or irregular spirals. Fossil gastropods are commonly found in sedimentary rocks like limestone, shale, and sandstone. Their abundance and diversity make them valuable index fossils, helping geologists to date the surrounding rock layers.
