The hundred million year fossils are kept in Vietnam

Specimens with thousands of years of lifespan reflect the evolutionary history of the earth's crust from early childhood. Each specimen bears its own mark on the process of formation, emancipation and annihilation in the range of biological evolution.

Vietnam currently holds thousands of hundred million year old fossil samples

The Department of Gender Evolution, belonging to the Vietnam Museum of Nature (18 Hoang Quoc Viet, Hanoi) exhibits thousands of fossil, rock and mineral samples . selected from various regions in Vietnam. and some countries in the world. Confirmed rock and mineral samples date from 2,936 million to 541 million years, related to the most powerful and ancient process of magmatic, sedimentary and metamorphic activity in the territory of Vietnam in the Hoang area. Lien Son, Northwest Vietnam.

Fossil patterns are stone histories, illustrating the evolutionary history of life on earth through geological dates from 600 million years to today. Each fossil specimen bears its own mark on the process of formation, emancipation and annihilation in the range of biological evolution; about ancient geographic conditions; about the ancient environmental conditions and the ancient tectonic context of its period of occurrence, emission and extinction on the earth.

The 4-ray coral population has the scientific name Nipponophyllum nikolaevae Khoa.This is a native species for the first time established by Dr. Nguyen Duc Khoa in 1996 but not yet published.Fossils are collected in the haunted limestone of the lower part of Kien An formation, with "life expectancy" of 427-423 million years.

Ancient jellyfish model V2 has the scientific name Cyclomedusa davidi provided by London Natural History Museum.This ancient jellyfish was first described in the sediments of the Edicaran period (635-541 million years) in the Edicaran region, southern Australia, belonging to the Ediacaran fauna.This species was also found in Ackhangen, on the White Sea coast (Arctic Ocean) of the Northwestern region of the Russian Federation;in the sediment of century Vendi, belonging to the Vendi fauna;dating back 605-543 million years.

Apatite ore-containing siltstone of type 1 has the content of P2O5 from 34-36%;collected in the middle of the Cam Duong formation, at the section of Ngoi Dum, Cam Duong apatite mine (Lao Cai);recorded the earliest age of the early Cambrian period, dating from 541 million years ago.

Trilobite Paradoxides gracilis belongs to Arthropoda branch, Trilobita class.This is the fossilized direction for the middle Cambrian strata (521-509 million years) in the Bohem region of the Czech Republic.Beautiful, fully preserved fossils, bought by many natural history museums around the world for display;At the same time, it is also a standard model for students to practice paleontology in universities.

Vietnamia douvillei lobster (Mansuy), belonging to Arthropoda branch, Tricobita class (Trilobita).Delegates of the three-lobed Beetle class were 250 million years ago today.The sediments containing the Vietnamia douvillei lobster (Mansuy) are exposed in Na Mo area and are classified into Na Mo formation dating back to 470-443 million years, based on the three-lobed monkeys and fossilized Hand fossils.This fossil was collected in 2008.

Stone stamen (Ammonoidea) is called Scientific name Dumortieria lantenoisi (Mansuy), belongs to the soft-bodied industry (Mollusca), Class of First-leg (Cephalopoda), Sub-class of Da da (Ammonoidea).This is a native species discovered and described in the Tri An hydropower dam, Dong Nai province.characteristic for Toar marine facies (182.7-174.1 TRN).The sample was bought from Mr. Hoang Thanh's personal collection, residing in Buon Ma Thuot City, Dak Lak Province in 2010.

Unidentified miniaturized fossils, temporarily classified into Cycadales (Cycadales);gymnosperms industry (Gymnospermae).Samples are collected in the red continental facies sediments of the Ea Sup Formation, widely exposed in Buon Ea Sup and Ban Don (Dak Lak).The age of the formation is defined as the middle Jurassic, corresponding to about 174.1 to 163.5 million years.

Unidentified fossil wood samples.Comparing with the stratigraphic position containing fossilized siliceous wood of Tho Lam formation in Quang Nam province with fossil wood siliceous in Ea Sup formation in Dak Lak;It is possible to assume that wood fossils are on display at the Museum of Vietnamese Nature in the middle Jurassic period, about 174.1 to 163.5 million years.This silicate fossilized wood sample was bought from Mr. Hoang Thanh's personal collection, residing in Buon Ma Thuot City (Dak Lak) in 2010. According to the record book, Mr. Thanh bought back the people in Ea commune. Stone, Krong Nang district, Dak Lak province.

The fossil record of the Sen family, collected in black shale, marsh facies of the Na Duong formation in the Na Duong brown coal mine, Loc Binh district, Lang Son province.The age of the Na Duong brown coal formation is a controversial issue that has not ended yet.Based on the fossil plant fossil record, previous researchers have suggested that the formations contain brown coal with the Miocene age of 23-5.3 million years of Neogene.

Moon fish, also known as sun fish, has the scientific name Mola mola (Linnaeus, 1758), belonging to the family of Moon fish (Molidae) in the Puffer fish (Tetraodontiformes).This is the first large, hot-blooded marine fish in the world, with vivid colors, short body, living in the ocean.Moon fish live on the surface layer, widely distributed around the world, in the tropics and warm waters.This species has a large body so it has high economic value, is easily detected and caught by cassava.Because of its unique shape and uncommon presence, moon fish is also a precious and attractive artifact in marine animal museums.This species is included in the Vietnam Red Book of 2007. In Vietnam, moon fish is recorded in the Gulf of Tonkin (Bach Long Vi Island area).In addition, recently, fishermen in Nghe An caught a moonfish of about 500 kg and transferred it to the Vietnam Nature Museum to preserve and serve research and display.
