Hi, I found this stone in...a charity shop. I really love it but I’m not sure what type of stone it is and the only one I can connect it to would be stromatolite. It has more unusual pattern though. Please could someone help me with identification. It has a clear quartz (I think) in the middle, it should be visible on the photo. Thanks

Parkinsonia parkinsoni (ammonite) Jurassic, Upper inferior Oolite Bridport Dorset. UK 6.5" The first photos I took a few years ago did nothing for this unique specimen. I found it difficult capturing the details and still think they could be better. The ammonite has many chambers preserved in calcite that glow when backlit. Calcite crystals can be seen growing inside some of the empty chambers. Fossil, mineral, crystals, art, science, love Happy collecting.

My metamorphic/igneous trip to Socorro, New Mexico.
Innocentx posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
All the beauty you see against the blue sky is a story of time from the book of rocks, uplifting, cleaving, and eroding in wonderful ways. I searched and got this Socorro County geologic map. A rather immense amount of study involved in this document. Best at 175% zoom. If I lived there all the time I might come to understand it. https://geoinfo.nmt.edu/publications/openfile/downloads/200-299/238/ofr_238.pdf- 39 replies

Hello from Cyprus, warm wishes for exciting finds to everyone! Here is a relatively bigger oyster than my usual finds, this one is complete and inside small crystals have formed, could be calcite not sure. Took advantage of the heavy rainfall and found it on muddy collapsing hills north of akrotiri area. I found half, and half a meter further I dug out the other half Perhaps you can better see the small crystals that formed all over inside both parts below Nearby I found also the following: found pos

I went exploring today. I hit 3 places. The 1st two were the Ozan in Rowlett. The first 2 were a busts, but the 3rd was in the Eagle Ford in Dallas and it was a very interesting place. I can’t say that I found specific fossils per se, but I did find the product/remains of prehistoric animals. I was ecstatic with my finds. Septarian nodules have been on my bucket list of things to find. I found a hill full of them!!! I got there less than an hour before sundown and was thrilled with what I found. This one is very cool, but I’m not sure what the original creature actually was.

Have been unable to identify. Found near Seattle, WA in a residential area so is possible it's non-native. Thinking this is a plant due to the inner patterns? Or could it be burrows? There are so many on this rock! Thank you for any help pointing me in the right direction.

I recently went rock hunting in north Texas, where I stumbled upon this interesting looking fossil in a dried up river bed. This was the only specimen I found of this nature. However, the area around the dried river bed is rich in arrowheads, if that information is useful at all. A friend told me that it looks to be a Mastodon Tooth. Now I'm no expert, but I have my doubts about that. I would really appreciate a second opinion on this. The fossil is roughly 1.5 inches is length, and 1 inch in width. There seems to be grooves around the sides where small crystals have formed. The top of this "
