JURASSIC AMMONITES OF GREAT BRITAIN Great Britain is rich in fossil ammonites from the Jurassic Period. High and crumbling cliffs at Lyme Regis and Charmouth are formed of shale and beds of limestone. Ammonites of all sizes are common. Small ammonites preserved in pyrite occur in shales and are found loose on the beach. Near Whitby, there are beds of nodules which often contain ammonites. The Fradingham Ironstone is composed of lenses of the different ironstone laid one on top of another. The calcite replacement of the ammonites from this location is a striking contrast of white against a gray mudstone.
