Dhaka, Feb. 7 -- The fossil of a "stunning" well-preserved ammonite has been dug out from a rock on the Isle of Wight.

Jack Wonfor, 24, spotted the stunning mollusc sticking out at St Catherine's point on the southerly tip of the island, BBC reports.

After digging it out, it took eight hours using an electric engraver to uncover the complete full fossil from the excess rock.

Mr Wonfor said the fossil - a Mortoniceras inflatum - "was roughly 100-105 million years old".

The retained firefighter and guide for Wight Coast Fossils on the island said he was extremely happy to get it out complete as ammonites were "hard to find with a complete rostrum".
