The rock surrounding it is 68 to 230 million years ago. If you found a phacops fossils the rock surrounding it is 400 million years old.
By using relative age. Over a long period of time, sediment will, layer by layer, coat and cover the fossil, making it difficult for paleontologists and scientists to figure out how old the fossil really is.
Uranium dating methods were not used for fossils dating.
You should be careful when you find a fossil because they are often fragile and can easily break if mishandled. It's important to handle fossils gently and with care to preserve them for future study and enjoyment. Additionally, some fossils may contain sharp edges or delicate structures that can be easily damaged.
Dating a fossil with certainty can be challenging, but with modern dating techniques like radiometric dating, scientists can determine the age of fossils with a fair degree of accuracy. Using multiple dating methods can also help cross-validate the age of a fossil. While there may be some margin of error, dating fossils is not impossible.
A preserved fossil is an organism or Animal that has been PERFECTLY PRESERVED for lots of years, or however old it may be. For example, a wooly mammoth frozen in the ice for millions of years would be known as a preserved fossil.There are 2 different types of fossil preservation- preservation with alteration and without. With alteration also has different types. The type of organism you are looking for depends on the how it was preserved.
Helix Fossil - Omanyte Dome Fossil - Kabuto Old Amber - Aerodactyl Root Fossil - Lileep Claw Fossil - Anorith Skull Fossil - Cranidos Armor Fossil - Shieldon -------------------------------------------
The oldest fossil found on earth is 3.5 billion years old
You have 9 types: Armor Fossil, Claw Fossil, Cover Fossil, Dome Fossil, Helix Fossil, Old Amber, Plume Fossil, Root Fossil, Skull Fossil
Dome fossil is Kabuto and Old Amber is Aerodactyl.
The Fossils in Pokémon Diamond are the Helix Fossil which is the Omanyte Fossil, the Dome Fossil which is the Kabuto Fossil, the Old Amber which is the Aerodactyl Fossil, the Root Fossil which is the Lileep Fossil, the Claw Fossil which is the Anorith Fossil, the Skull Fossil which is the Cranidos Fossil and the Armor Fossil which is the Shieldon Fossil.

A very old fossil in sedimentary rocks is called a "trace fossil" or "index fossil." These fossils provide valuable information about past life forms and help scientists understand Earth's history.
