Woolly Mammoth tooth fossils

Pretty amazing to think about, really - these are fossilised and preserved teeth from ice-age Woolly Mammoths.

Woolly Mammoth teeth, surprisingly, can be found in a few places worldwide - they are not just limited to the Siberian and Canadian permafrosts. I actually don't buy any Siberian teeth, as much of the mining/collection is illegal.

In the UK, they are sometimes found in quarries; but they can also be dredged from the North Sea, between the UK and the Netherlands/Holland - an area that was once known as Doggerland or Dogger Bank. This is where the majority of my stock comes from - sometimes from UK and sometimes from NL fishermen or their agents.

 

Our current stock includes:

  • #1 - 106.5x69.8x20.1MM - a mammoth tooth fragment from Florida, USA. This piece has an unusual blue tinge, perhaps due to copper minerals. Not much of the grinding surface visible, and rather a small fragment, consisting of one molar plate.
