Two pieces of ammolite, a rare and very interesting gemstone which can come in strikingly different colours. They are the fossilised shells of ammonites which lived between 65-125 million years ago and went extinct around the same time as the dinosaurs. These specimens came from Bear Paw Valley in Alberta, Canada and I just received them.
