So. Carolina
Buried Treasure Fossils offers incredible So. Carolina fossil shark teeth for sale including Auriculatus, Angustidens, and Megalodon teeth. South Carolina is well known for an abundance of fossil shark teeth from the Carcharocles genus – the extinct Giant White sharks. Three different localities are featured. Site 1 is the numerous rivers of coastal S. Carolina are home to Carcharocles megalodon, the extinct Giant White shark. Teeth are recovered in gravel holes at the bottom of these rivers. Divers must fight off rapid currents and little to no visibility in water depths of 30-60 feet to find their prize. These teeth are Miocene-Pliocene in age (2-15 million years ago), but typically come from the Miocene Hawthorne Formation (15 million years ago). A scond site consists of marl deposits in the Dorchester county area yield excellent specimens of Carcharocles angustidens – another extinct Giant White shark ancestor. These teeth are Oligocene in age (25-38 million years ago) from the Chandler Bridge Formation. Site 3 is a few limestone quarries in the Dorchester-Orangeburg counties area that yield superb specimens of Carcharocles auriculatus – the precursor of the extinct Giant White shark. These fossil teeth are found in the Santee limestone which is Eocene age (38-45 million years ago). Site 4 is a land site near Ridgeville, SC. These beautifully colored teeth are from the Pliocene epoch (approx. 4 million years ago). Authenticity guaranteed. Have a look.
