Fossils are found in many places where sedimentary rocks, such as claystones, shales, limestones, and sandstones, are exposed. Only certain sedimentary rocks harbored the appropriate environmental conditions to preserve and yield fossils, which are often concentrated along particular bedding planes within the rocks.
 
−
===Finding Fossils===
 
−
Fossils are generally found in sedimentary rock with differentiated strata representing a succession of deposited material.

Safety goggles and protective gloves are also essential, as rocks can be sharp and dangerous; safety goggles will protect eyes from chips produced while hammering, and gloves protect the hands.

A collector need dress appropriately for collecting trips, taking into account the climate and terrain of the area. Sturdy footwear, such as walking or hiking boots with steel toes, are recommended. A hammer, chisel and wrapping materials are the basic equipment required for fossil collecting, along with a stout rucksack or canvas bag for carrying equipment and fossil finds. The steel of many ordinary hammers is too soft for use on most type of rock. The steel may splinter, and the flying fragments cause injury to the person using the hammer, or others in the vicinity. The hammer should always strike away from the body. The head of a geological hammer or rock pick is made from specially hardened steel designed for use on rocks. The head is either firmly attached to a wooden shaft, or the hammer have the head and the shaft formed from one piece of steel. The head may have any combination of a square face, a tapered point, or a straight chisel edge. The point of such picks are not meant for striking rock directly, but for tapping rock (such as shale) open along planes and for prying: the hammer end is used for striking.
 
−
 
−
A convenient weight for a general purpose geological hammer or rock pick is around 1 kg (2 to 3 pounds). For breaking very hard rocks one may need a hammer of between 3 and 6.5 kg (7 and 14 pounds) in weight, with a correspondingly longer and thicker shaft. A hammer that is too heavy is tiring to use and results in unsafe work.

Crinoids, also known as "sea lilies" or "feather-stars", are marine animals that make up the class Crinoidea of the echinoderms (phylum Echinodermata). There are only a few hundred known modern forms, but crinoids were much more numerous both in species and numbers in the past. Some thick limestone beds dating to the mid- to late-Paleozoic are entirely made up of disarticulated crinoid fragments.

The Foraminifera are a large group of unicellular organisms with reticulating pseudopods, fine strands of cytoplasm that branch and merge to form a dynamic net. They typically produce a test, or shell, which can have either one or multiple chambers, some becoming quite elaborate in structure. About 275,000 species are recognized, both living and fossil.

Radiolaria are amoeboid protozoa that produce intricate mineral skeletons, typically with a central capsule dividing the cell into inner and outer portions, called endoplasm and ectoplasm. They are found as zooplankton throughout the ocean, and because of their rapid turn-over of species, their tests are important diagnostic fossils found from the Cambrian onwards.

Most museums of natural history will have a fossil collection, and even small museums are likely to have a few. If you do not know of such a museum in your area, the Internet is your friend. Try searching for "fossil," "museum," and the name of your locality. If you are still unsure, get a list of local museums and call them. They will be happy to tell you if they have fossils on display, and if they do not, they may be able to direct you to a museum that does. Also not all museums are called a museum. The T Rex and some other fossils shown here were photographed at Science World in Vancouver.

<!-- 4. Describe the process of the proper removal of delicate specimens. Tell how a skeleton of a dinosaur or other gigantic fossil would be removed. Why should beginners not remove such specimens? What should be done by the beginner when he finds what is obviously a valuable fossil?  -->
 
−
===Removal of delicate specimens===
 
−
For extracting fossils from harder rocks, a sturdy mallet and cold steel chisels may also be required. Usually one needs a range of chisels in size from small ones with a sharp edge of about 1 cm (quarter of an inch), to much larger and heavier chisels. A broad-bladed chisel is often very useful for splitting rocks along their bedding plane.
 
  
−
Different types of rocks will break differently and a beginner should put in a little practice, getting the feel for a particular type of rock before he or she starts hammering out fossils. It is all too easy to ruin a specimen with one ill-placed blow of a hammer.
+
{{clear}}
  
−
Extracting a specimen that is embedded in solid rock may prove to be a long and difficult process. Before attempting to extract a specimen, the collector should make sure that it is feasible to remove it without destroying or damaging it. Leaving sufficient rock beneath the specimen to protect it from fracturing; excess matrix can be trimmed at a later time.
+
{{clear}}
  
−
For soft sediments and unconsolidated deposits, such as sands, silts and clays, a spade and a flat-bladed trowel or stout bladed knife may be the most useful tools for clearing the area around a fossil. Brushes are also useful for removing loose sediment from around fossils.
+
{{clear}}
  
−
A sieve is used to separate fossils from sands and gravels. A smaller mesh is required in order to avoid losing small fossils. One practical difficulty with using sieves in the field is that they easily become clogged, especially when the material sieved has a high moisture content. However, under dry weather conditions the more durable fossils, such as teeth and bones, can be quickly and easily sieved out of loose sands. Shaking the sieve is always liable to damage or destroy fragile fossils.
+
{{clear}}
  
−
If there is water available, such as on a beach or next to a stream, the material containing the fossils can be sieved wet and the matrix gradually washed away. Wet sieving is a technique that is frequently used for the collection of small mammalian fossils, and by using this technique even the smallest specimens may be recovered.
+
{{clear}}
  
−
===Removing gigantic fossils===
+
{{clear}}
−
Occasionally, large fragile specimens may need to be surrounded and supported using a jacket of plaster before their removal from the rock: This protects the fossil, protecting it from shattering. If a fossil is to be left in situ, a cast may be produced, using plaster of paris or latex - while not preserving every detail, such a cast is inexpensive, easier to transport, causes less damage to the environment, and leaves the fossil in place for others to enjoy. Subtle fossils which are preserved solely as impressions in sandy layers, such as the Ediacaran fossils, are usually sampled by means of a cast, which shows up detail more clearly than the rock itself.
 
  
−
===Valuable fossils===
+
{{clear}}
−
If you find an obviously valuable fossil, you should contact a professional. It is too easy to ruin a fossil by attempting to remove it yourself. Leave the extraction in the hands of an experienced collector. If you find such a fossil on public land, contact the authority responsible for the land. The fossil belongs to them, and they have the right to decide what to do with it. To find a professional, contact a museum or a local university. If they do not have one on staff, they will be able to refer you to one.

<!-- 5. Explain the difference in the account scientists give for the presence of fossils as related by evolutionists and creationists.  -->
 
−
Evolutionists and creationists both agree that fossils are formed when a creature is quickly buried in sediment. They disagree on how long ago this happened. Evolutionists believe most fossils were made millions of years ago. Creationists believe that nearly all fossils were made during Noah's flood less than 10,000 years ago.

|''Everywhere were strewn the dead bodies of men and beasts. The Lord would not permit these to remain to decompose and pollute the air, therefore He made of the earth a vast burial ground. A violent wind which was caused to blow for the purpose of drying up the waters, moved them with great force, in some instances even carrying away the tops of the mountains and heaping up trees, rocks, and earth above the bodies of the dead.''
 
−
''At this time immense forests were buried. These have since been changed to coal, forming the extensive coal beds that now exist, and also yielding large quantities of oil. The coal and oil frequently ignite and burn beneath the surface of the earth. Thus rocks are heated, limestone is burned, and iron ore melted.''

−
The Bible itself offers no explicit explanation of coal, petroleum, fossils, or limestone, though it does contain the story of Noah's flood (see Genesis chapters 6-9). In this account, the whole earth is covered by water, and all life, except those in the ark, is lost. The Biblical account of creation rejects the notion of hundred of millions of years of evolution, stating with clarity that God created the world in six days. In Genesis chapter 5, the Bible also provides genealogies of the Patriarchs, including their ages when they had children and when they died. From this, and from other historical records, the Bible sets the age of the Earth at about 6000 years.

3

Explicar las características de las eras Paleozoica, Cenozoica, Mesozoica y Pleistoceno. Colocarlos en orden cronológico. Explicar por qué los creacionistas usan estos términos.




4

Describir el proceso de la correcta extracción de los especímenes delicados. Decir cómo un esqueleto de un dinosaurio gigantesco u otros fósiles serían extraídos. ¿Por qué no deberían los principiantes extraer esos especímenes? ¿Qué debe hacer el principiante cuando encuentra un fósil de evidente valor?




5

Explicar la diferencia que los científicos dan de la presencia de fósiles en relación a los evolucionistas y creacionistas.




6

De la Biblia y los escritos de Elena G. de White, citar declaraciones para explicar el origen de los fósiles.


De Historia de Patriarcas y Profetas, p. 98, 99
Por doquiera yacían cadáveres de hombres y animales. El Señor no iba a permitir que permaneciesen allí para infectar el aire por su descomposición, y por lo tanto, hizo de la tierra un vasto cementerio. Un viento violento enviado para secar las aguas, las agitó con gran fuerza, de modo que en algunos casos derribaron las cumbres de las montañas y amontonaron árboles, rocas y tierra sobre los cadáveres.

En ese tiempo inmensos bosques fueron sepultados. Desde entonces se han transformado en el carbón de piedra de las extensas capas de hulla que existen hoy día, y han producido también enormes cantidades de petróleo. Con frecuencia la hulla y el petróleo se encienden y arden bajo la superficie de la tierra. Esto calienta las rocas, quema la piedra caliza, y derrite el hierro.



7

Investigar cinco antepasados fósiles de animales que están vivos hoy. ¿Cómo se comparan y contrastan los antepasados fósiles con los animales modernos?




8

Realizar dos de las siguientes actividades:



8a

Dedicar tiempo a buscar fósiles e intentar identificarlos. Traerlos para mostrar a su club de Conquistadores.




8b

Hacer un modelo de fósil de planta o animal con yeso, arcilla u otro medio.




8c

Visitar un museo donde se exhiban fósiles y dar un informe escrito u oral de su viaje.


Tiranosaurio rex




9

Hacer una colección de al menos diez tipos diferentes de fósiles y etiquetar cada uno con su nombre y ubicación geográfica. Clasificarlos como material orgánico de impresión, mineralizado, traza o preservado.




10

Preparar una parábola o una breve lección espiritual basada en fósiles utilizando lo aprendido en esta especialidad.
