<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Michael W. Bradley, post: 7747279, member: 114144&quot;]In my younger days I had a passion for (early rock collecting) and later collecting fossils In Northeast Ohio. Trilobites are common in Ohio. I may have a couple part pieces but mostly shells and fish teeth and possibly ancient shark teeth. I dug them out directly from certain strata where Tinker&#039;s Creek and other tributaries and rivers dug deep into the bedrock in between sandstones. (By the way under Lake Erie are miles deep of salt mines, where a good deal of road salt comes from). Underneath these strata. Anyway I once took a specimen of mine to show an eminent university geology professor in Cleveland. He was impassive. About the same time I inquired of the local library in Bedford about if they had any info on fossils in Bedford gorge. They hadn&#039;t but a couple years later the librarian sent me a clipping that the professor had made a huge discovery of a great find of an ancient fossil shark in the gorge! Now almost all these areas are Federal park-so I think fossil hunting is verboten.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
