These Gastropod Maoricolpus murrayna Miocene fossil from Morgan South Australia 38-43mm weigh 2-3g. These well-preserved fossil shells were obtained in the Cadell Marl Lens found in Morgan, South Australia. The Miocene Epoch was the first part of the Neogene Period, lasting approximately from 23.03 million to 5.333 million years ago. It was a time of a generally warmer climate and continental drift to near modern positions. This Epoch also saw the emergence of many modern plant and animal species, including early hominins.

Gastropod fossils are the remnants of the earliest molluscs. They date back to the Late Cambrian period, approximately 500 million years ago. Gastropods are diverse, having the ability to colonise land, marine, and freshwater environments. While most gastropod fossils are the original shells, some are internal or external molds or casts, formed when the aragonite of the shell dissolves and is replaced by other minerals.

Fossils are a wonderful tool to assist you in transition from the old to the new. They help you to be receptive to the fresh, innovative forces that are available. Fossils can assist you with transformation and personal growth and help you to understand the process of change.
