Can someone help to identify these fossils and the possible date of age?
PatriciaL posted a topic in Fossil ID
I've found this mollusc fossils in the Saudi Arabia desert, one hour away from Riyadh city. It seems all this area was ocean during the the early cretaceous period. Meaning that these fossils can have around 77 million years old? They are bigger than a tennis ball! Can someone help to identify these exactly and the possible date of age? Thank you!

Found this encased in rock with a small patch sticking out. I carved it out with a diamond wheel grinder and then a diamond tip dremel. Dropped it one night and it broke a chunk off of the front so I decided to etch some of the inside out since I had read there was a rare chance it might contain a fossil pearl. If it does contain one it would have to be the oldest one discovered so far due to the period it is from. I think the oldest is 200-210 mill years old. Cumberland City was under water 300-500 mill years ago. Any thoughts? Any help is truly appreciated. Thank you all in advance. -Oosse

Hello everyone, just trying to get species names if anyone knows. I know that 1 and 3 are from Yorkshire, England. I don’t know the location of any of the other species unfortunately. Thank you.

I found these while on a trek uphill. I’ve posted it on different sites but no one can give a positive ID on my finds. Location is Cebu, Philippines by the way. Always been curious about how the ocean life was here millions of years ago as most studies indicate that the Philippine archipelago was submerged in water. For more angles, click on that imgur link as I have labelled those there.

I initially thought it was petrified wood, which I've found at this site before, but apart from a small piece that is missing this seems to be complete, not a broken off piece of petrified wood. And rather than having texture like bark on one side and wood on the other, both sides are similar, with a very clear crack lengthwise down the middle.

Bivalve species identification from Cretaceous (Glen Rose) in Uvalde County TX
Mr.Marcus posted a topic in Fossil ID
I need some help identifying these two specimens. I have collected and cleaned at least 50 of each specimen. The majority of them were found in the upper Glen Rose formation of Edwards, Real and Uvalde County Texas. I've been told that they are both called "deer hearts," even though they look different. Given the different physical characteristics (deep lines on the right specimen and "ears" on the left specimen), I'm guessing that they are different species. My best guess is either Arctica roemeri or Protocardia texana. Thanks!- 3 replies
