Description: Graptolites collected from the Athens Shale formation (Ordovician age) near Montevalo, Alabama.
Following are graptolites collected from the Athens Shale formation (Ordovician age) near Montevalo, Alabama. The Athens shale tends to be a nice formation for collecting graptolites, as the dark carbonized remains of the graptolite contrast sharply with the tan to cream colored shale. In fact, it seems that the presence of graptolites in the shale influenced the coloration, as there are darker colored shales near to the light colored ones, but the graptolites are often surrounded by a "halo" of lighter color even in the darkest of shales.
