or A small Dinosaur, bone. The following are microscope photos of three sections of a small piece of Dinosaur bone. The thin section slides were made using a Hi-Tech Diamond flat lap grinding machine. The first photo is the actual bone segment, approximately 22mm long and 12mm in cross section. The next three photos are full scans of the three cross section followed by a few selected sections. I used two microscopes, a Labomed LB-592 Polarizing and a Zeiss Stemi 305edu with a homemade polarizing kit. Additional Dinosaur bone images Crossed Polars Stage was rotated 45° Plane light, stereo microscope Same section with the Darkfield stop in place.

Just got back from a dig in the Hell Creek formation. Everything from Hadrosaur, ray teeth, champsosaur verts, gar scales, turtle, ceratopsian frill and theropod teeth were in the immediate area of this bone. We will be heading to the lab in the morning to begin prep, but I was just wondering if any of you seasoned experts might have any idea what this is. Everything was pretty jumbled and most of the bone in the area we were digging was pretty degraded (more like coffee grounds), but this was one of the few in decent shape that seemed to be diagnostic. I will post better pics once it is prepped.

Large Fossilized Bone? Found In Nebo Oklahoma Near White Mound.
enoscrawler posted a topic in Fossil ID
My wife spotted this on the side of the road as we were leaving White Mound in Nebo Oklahoma. It may be surrounded by shell because it is very brittle and flakes apart. The bone itself is about 15in long and pretty strong. It weighs maybe 10- 15lbs. Any ideas of what it would be? An uncle of mine believes its a jaw bone.h -

From the album: Opalised Fossils
Name: Opalised Dinosaur (Caudal?) Vertebra Age: 110 million years old Locality: Lightning Ridge, NSW, Australia Formation: Griman Creek Formation Length: 16mm end to end Notes: This is an opalised dinosaur vertebra from Australia. I originally bought it as an opalised 'reptile' vertebra but it's ID as being a dinosaur vertebra was confirmed by one of the leading experts on the opalised fossils of Lightning Ridge. It is likely a juvenile ornithopod or theropod vertebral centrum, missing the tall neural arch. It is semi-transparent when held up to a strong light and is an exceptionally rare specimen. So far it is the only vertebrate fossil in my opalised fossils collection but I hope I am able to acquire more soon. Specimens like this very rarely come up for sale as most of them end up in museum collections due to their rarity and scientific value.- 2 comments

Ok, i have a dinosaur bone that is hollow. I am wondering whether or not it is a theropod bone or not, as theropods had hollow bones. Can somebody please identify it for me? I found this bone in the Dinosaur Park Formation of southern Alberta, right outside of Dinosaur Provincial Park
