15 - 30 Million Year Old Clam Fossils 🤯 Geologically speaking, Oregon coast fossils are found in three formations: Astoria Formation, 15- to 20-million-year-old sandstone layers mixed with com-pressed volcanic ash Nye mudstone, up to 20 million years old Coledo Formation specimens (found on south coast beaches) of dark ash and sand, 25–30 million years old. These formations of compacted sand, volcanic ash, and river-borne silt are uplifted from the Pacific Ocean floor by geo-plate movement. #tr

Did You Know scallop fossils from the Oregon coast can be 15–20 MILLION years old‼️😱 In the Astoria Formation, you can find fossil scallops (family Pectinidae) like Patinopecten and Chlamys types that lived in coastal waters when this part of Oregon was underwater. These shells are often 15–20 million years old, and you can spot them by the strong “fan” ribs radiating out from the hinge and the chunky, layered shell material that fossilizes so well. The coolest part is they still have living co

You Will Not Believe What’s Buried Along the Oregon Coast‼️😱 The Astoria Formation is one of Oregon’s most fossil-rich coastal rock layers, formed roughly 15 to 30 million years ago when this entire region was covered by a shallow sea. These rocks are a snapshot of an ancient ocean ecosystem frozen in time. Within the Astoria Formation, you can find marine fossils like clams, snails, scallops, crab and shrimp remains, sand dollars, fish bones, and even shark teeth. Some rocks preserve burrows a

Did You Know Oregon’s Coast Is Packed With Ancient Scallop Fossils ‼️😱 Some of these scallop fossils found along the Oregon coast come from the Astoria Formation, which is about 15 to 20 million years old. That means these shells were living in an ancient ocean long before the coastline looked the way it does today. The Astoria Formation is known for tons of marine fossils, so finding a scallop fossil out here is like finding a real piece of Oregon’s prehistoric sea life. Pretty insane to think
