#Ammonite metaphysical properties series
Their remains were covered in mineral rich volcanic ash which flowed down from the mountains in rivers and buried the ammonites in a series of compressed layers of bentonite clay. The inland subtropical sea, referred to now as the Western Interior Seaway, just east of the Rocky Mountains near Alberta Canada, receded near the end of the Mesozoic era and all the Ammonites died. These layers diffract light at different intensities creating an iridescent vivid coloured crystalline surface much like the Paua shells of modern times.Īmmolites are found in the Bearpaw Shale Formation in Alberta Canada and their wonderful colours are thought to have been created by the conditions in which they were formed. The Ammonites, like all molluscs, secreted aragonite (a form of calcium carbonate and conchiolin) called nacre to form layers which built up over time. Only the last and largest chamber was occupied by the living animal, as it matured and grew, larger chambers were added at the opening.Īmmonites varied in size from 2 meters (6.5 feet) down to 2 cm (0.75 inches) in diameter. The soft-bodied animal living in this shell most-likely resembled an octopus but with shorter arms. A tube called the siphuncle, connected the body with the chambers allowing the animal to fill them with water or air, changing its buoyancy in order to rise or descend in the ocean water column. The shells of ammonites had hollow chambers separated by walls called septa. Ammonites were mollusks with shells that were tightly coiled on a single plane like a wheel. They first existed in the Devonian period (over 400 million years ago) and went extinct at the end of the Cretaceous period. It is formed from the iridescent shells (mother of pearl or nacre) of fossilised Ammonites, a type of ancient nautilus.
