These Jurassic 3 Iridescent Ammonites from Madagascar 25mm weigh 16g. They are iridescent from mineralisation. They lived in a Jurassic ocean about 180 million years ago. Ammonoids are an extinct subclass of mostly coiled-shelled cephalopods. They are more closely related to living octopuses, squid, and cuttlefish; than they are to nautiloids, which are in a different family. Ammonite is a powerful healing fossil. The Ammonites dominated the Earth’s oceans for over 340 million years, making them one of the longest living creatures seen on Earth. The earliest ammonoids appeared during the Early Devonian, 410.62 million years ago. The last species vanished through the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, 66 million years ago. They are commonly called ammonites, after the long-lived order Ammonitida.

The Ammonite’s spiral shape symbolises continual change and evolution. Ammonites have absorbed cosmic energy over millennia, which helps stimulate the life force within us. Having an Ammonite in your home will attract health, prosperity and success.

The Ammonite spirals are like a filter. They draw in negative energies which are no longer needed. These move through the spirals to be released as fresh, loving positive life-force energies.

Ammolites are Ammonite fossils found in Madagascar and Alberta (Canada) displaying iridescence through compression and mineralisation of the Ammonite fossil. These iridescent Ammonites can be of gem quality when polished. This iridescence would not have been visible during the animal's life. It was covered by additional shell layers.
