Fossil hunter spots 450,000-year-old mammoth tusk while at quarry: 'Sticking out like a sore thumb'
Fox News
A paleontologist recently discovered a 4-foot-long mammoth tusk while on a quarry dig. The rare find is thought to be 450,000 years old. "I could not believe my eyes," said Jamie Jordan.
The four-foot-long mammoth tusk was "sticking out like a sore thumb," he told SWNS. By 2006, Jordan began running fossil hunting trips "so he could take members of the public to safe areas and show them how to find fossils." Brittany Kasko is a lifestyle production assistant with Fox News Digital.
"I could not believe my eyes," Jordan recalled of the moment, as SWNS, the British news service, reported.
