Fossils, native metals (silver, copper, gold, etc.), and meteorites are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. Their vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and unique shapes make them objects of fascination.

For centuries, meteorites, native metals, and fossils have been revered as sacred objects by different cultures and civilizations. Ammonites, nautiluses, turritella, sea urchins... each fossil, each meteorite tells an ancient story.

Whether you are looking for a paleontology enthusiast, a mineralogy enthusiast or a curious amateur, delve into the history of our planet by acquiring quality pieces.

How is a fossil formed?

Fossilize by permineralization: the pores of the bone, for example, are filled with minerals (silica, calcite, pyrite, etc.) or by total replacement: the organic matter is entirely replaced by minerals.

- The minerals involved are often:

• Calcite (CaCO₃): common in marine or lacustrine environments.
• Silica (SiO₂): produces very hard fossils.
• Calcium phosphate: in bone or tooth fossils (as apatite).
• Sometimes pyrite (FeS₂) in anoxic environments.
