New Zealand man cooks 20-million-year-old fossil to reveal microscopic shark teeth
New Zealand fossil enthusiast Mamlambo experimented with a bizarre method of extracting treasures from parts of the earth and seabed.
Footage from December 12 shows the method of baking parts of the earth with suspected fossils, in which the surrounding dirt breaks down and becomes easier to sift through.
Additional footage shows Mamlambo baking in the oven and boiling on the stove the fragments of dirt and earth.
Once it has been sifted he places it on a tray and uses a large microscope to seek out any hidden micro-fossils, where he finds 20-million-year-old teeth from sharks and fish.
Mamlambo explained: "Earlier in the year, I was out looking for shark teeth in a Miocene greensand layer.
"I didn't find any shark teeth on the day but found an area where someone had dug out a section of the cliff.
"I picked up as many pieces as I could and brought them home with me.
"Do NOT ever remove rock from the cliff as this erodes the beach.
"I had heard that baking greensand and then submerging it in boiling water breaks it down into a slurry that can be sifted.
"Taking over the kitchen for two days, I went about this and got some pretty good results!
"I baked it for two days at 50 degrees Celsius.
"The little twig bits are bits of coral."
