John Issa
John Issa is a Canadian ammonite specialist whose career has been closely tied to the fossil-rich Bearpaw Formation of southern Alberta—one of the only regions in the world where iridescent ammolite occurs. He began his professional work in 1999 with Canada Fossils Ltd., where he developed field and preparation expertise across a wide range of material while focusing increasingly on the brilliantly preserved ammonites of the Late Cretaceous. Over time, Issa became well known within the commercial paleontology community for both his technical skill and his long-standing presence in major fossil shows and institutional networks.
