Why might ancient lake and sea beds be rich sources of fossils?

water saves bones Because as the river erodes the soil beneath it and on the banks, the fossils that lie buried there are exposed and wash into the river; then the suspended soil settles onto the fossils in the river bed and covers them again.


What types of stones are most likely to contain fossils?

There are three basic types of rock; sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic. Igneous rocks are formed by volcanic action and don't contain fossils. Sedimentary rocks are formed, usually under water, by eroded material accumulating. Metamorphic rocks are formed when sedimentary rocks are changed by heating and/or pressure. From this, you can see that sedimentary rocks are the most likely to contain fossils, although metamorphic rocks also can contain fossils. Any sedimentary rock can contain fossils, but some make fossil hunting easier. Shales and mudstones are particularly good; chalk is pretty much entirely made of fossils - it's formed of skeletons of small organisms, but its difficult to see the individual fossils.

The seaside is a good place to look for fossils because it often contains exposed layers of sedimentary rock that are rich in fossils. The constant erosion from the waves can also help to uncover new fossils that may have been buried. Additionally, marine environments are known to have a high abundance and diversity of fossilized marine organisms.
