Rare Black Ammonite Pair

9.1cm by 11.3cm high approx.

Black Ammonites are RARE. Usually about 1 in 1000 are black. There has being a recent find where 1 in 100 are black but its a very limited supply.  They are collected from a different location and the difference in coloration would be due to changes to the rock after the ammonite was fossilized. Very RARE and highly prized by collectors

These most colorful ammonites come from Madagascar, off the coast of Africa.  Cleoniceras is the most common type in Madagascar.  99% of the ammonites found in Madagascar are this species, with a smooth shell and angled segments.  The animal actually lived in the very last segments.  Variations in price are due to color differences and how many crystal cavities (or open ‘cave like’ structures) in the segments.  On average 110 million years old.

During their evolution the ammonites faced no less than three catastrophic events that would eventually lead to their extinction. The first event occurred during the Permian (250 million years ago), where only 10% survived. These surviving species went on to flourish throughout the Triassic, however at the end of this period (206 million years ago) they faced near extinction, when all but one species survived. This event marked the end of the Triassic and the beginning of the Jurassic The final catastrophe occurred at the end of the Cretaceous period when all species were annihilated and the ammonites became extinct. This event apparently coincided with the death of the dinosaurs

Fossils represent time, eternity and evolution. In general they are used as protective objects.

Ammonites have a strong positive Earth energy to it, and is used in finding your way down the “spiritual spiral path” It is also used in past life regression. In healing, ammonite will assist with general good health, stamina and high energy. It can help transmute negativity to smoothly flowing energy.
