Click on one of the following fossils to see full sized version.
During this epoch sea level rose and fell several times inundating the
land. Ocean currents shifted causing extremely phosphate rich deposits.
Some of these fossils came from a phosphate mine. I bought the horse fossils
and the broken Carcharodon megalodon tooth so I am not positive that they
are actually from the Bone valley formation. However I have found both
horse teeth and megalodon teeth in this formation, so I am including them
in with this group.
