Fossil Collecting
Fossil collecting can be a very relaxing and rewarding hobby. There are no special rules about where
one may find fossils, and you can find fossils in many places where sedimentary rocks are exposed,
such as clays, shales, limestones and sandstones. Only certain sedimentary rocks will yield fossils,
and they are often concentrated along particular bedding planes within the rocks.

Fossil Collecting Paragraph
Fossil collecting (some times, in a non-scientific sense, fossil hunting) is the collection of fossils for
scientific study, hobby, or profit.
Fossil collecting, as practiced by amateurs, is the predecessor of modern paleontology and many still
collect fossils and study fossils as amateurs.
Professionals and amateurs alike collect fossils for their scientific value.
A commercial trade in fossils has also long existed, with some of this being practised illegally.

Exercise text:
Fossil Collecting ethics
To collect fossils, there are various legal realities that must be observed. Permission should be
sought before collection begins on private land. Hammering the rocks in national parks and other
areas of natural beauty is often discouraged and in most cases is illegal.
The first expressly worded fossil-collecting code was published from the museum-home of
pioneering geologist Hugh Miller at Cromarty, on the Highland east coast of Scotland, 11 April 2008.
It was introduced by Michael Russell, Minister for Environment, Scotland, as part of celebrations
honouring the bicentennial of the founding of the Geological Society of London. The code
supplements an existing draft drawn up by English Nature.
The code advises fossil collectors to seek permission from landowners, to collect responsibly, record
details, seek advice on finding an unusual fossil and label the specimens and care for them. Its
principles establish a framework of advice on best practices in the collection, identification,
conservation and storage of fossil specimens.
The non-binding code of ethics for this field was drawn up by Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH)
following many months of consultation with fossil collectors, landowners, palaeontological
researchers, and staff of Scotland's museums.

  • 104. P a g e | 104 John Allan 2017 Exercise text: Fossil Collecting ethics To collect fossils, there are various legal realities that must be observed. Permission should be sought before collection begins on private land. Hammering the rocks in national parks and other areas of natural beauty is often discouraged and in most cases is illegal. The first expressly worded fossil-collecting code was published from the museum-home of pioneering geologist Hugh Miller at Cromarty, on the Highland east coast of Scotland, 11 April 2008. It was introduced by Michael Russell, Minister for Environment, Scotland, as part of celebrations honouring the bicentennial of the founding of the Geological Society of London. The code supplements an existing draft drawn up by English Nature. The code advises fossil collectors to seek permission from landowners, to collect responsibly, record details, seek advice on finding an unusual fossil and label the specimens and care for them. Its principles establish a framework of advice on best practices in the collection, identification, conservation and storage of fossil specimens. The non-binding code of ethics for this field was drawn up by Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) following many months of consultation with fossil collectors, landowners, palaeontological researchers, and staff of Scotland's museums.
