  1. I’m guessing it’s fossilized coral however the white things in the holes are throwing me off. Any idea?
  2. Like the title states… we are stumped. Found on the Kaw River as well. Thank you in advance, all suggestions appreciated!
  3. A few years ago, I found a fossilized something on the Beach at Cape Henlopen. It was embedded in quartz. It looked kinda like a belemnite, but the wrong material. I was told by Plax that it was much older than our cretaceous belemnites. I tucked it into a spot on the shelf and wondered about it. Since then I have seen a few posts here and there from folks in NJ finding nice little paleozoic pieces on their side of the bay as well. This summer, I made it a mission to explore the Delaware beaches and see what I could find and how far north they went. I began at the cape and worked my way north, one beach to a trip. Cape Henlopen's beach is rather lacking in pebbles this season, so not much to find, but I know they turn up! I have spotted them here and there in the intervening years. The next few trips were Bowers Beach. Oh, yeah! Some are impressions of brachiopods and crinoids are so tiny in big pebbles that is just isn't worth it to take them home and wonder where on that pitted rock I found something recognizable. Others are very distinct chunks of coral replaced with chert, some with crystal quartz in the gaps between structural elements. Each time, I came home with a couple of fistfuls of nice little pieces, mostly about 1" across. The next stop was the beach in Battery Park, in New Castle. This is not a nice bathing beach. It is on a heavily-industrialized section of the Delaware River. The beach is littered with slag, brick, glass and bits of other man-made "rock." But, the black slag definitely allows the brown chert to stand out more. Bingo! The prettiest horn coral I've found yet, plus a few other nice goodies. All told, I came home with about as much as I usually find at Bowers, but cutting my travel time from over an hour to just 20 minutes. *Insert Happy Dance Here!* The last stop was a rare little stretch of river bank in Claymont, a mile or so from the northern border. The stretch was pretty narrow and short. There were plenty of pebbles, but not much chert. Nothing distinctly fossilized. Oh, yeah, and on the way BACK, I found, facing into the woods and hidden by the vegetation, a "No Trespassing" sign. Now they tell me. Ah, well, now I know it isn't worth the trouble anyway. The Delaware Geological Survey, as far as I can find, has no public record of fossils at the beach. They note the Cretaceous at the C&D Canal, the Miocene in a farm field that got bulldozed for a highway, Pleistocene silicified wood in the fields and streams just south of the canal, and plant impressions from the canal down to the southern border. The corals and other marine impressions in the chert are Paleozoic, possibly Devonian or Silurian, but no one seems quite sure. They were part of the ancient sea bed when the Cretaceous stuff at the canal was still alive and can be found in the pebbles there, too, occasionally. I find it really neat and kind of surreal to think about all those fossils that were ancient when my ancient sea shells were still alive.

    Coral?

    Hey, new here! My 5 year old found this in the yard. We're in NC about 1 Mile from the Cape Fear River (literally back yard). We're also about an hour or so from beaches. I found some pictures it looks like Disphyllia Wangi which I'm thinking is coral from France. It also looks like it's possible honeycomb? I'm no archeologist, but my 5 year old has always been super interested in nature particularly anthropology and archeology. I'd love any help our resources to identify this and fuel his journey.

    Partial Tusk?

    I am relatively new to fossiling, but I am excited that on my second trip out I found something very interesting. I found either a metatarsal from some land based animal or a tusk. Its very oval and some kind of enamel that is about 1/4 in thick. Found in Alafia River, Polk County, FL

    Fossilized coral?

    Hello!! I recently found a beautiful piece of (what I now know) seems to be honeycomb fossilized coral. I found it on my farm in Tennessee along with many other small fragments of this type of coral. This is the largest piece I have found and would love to know more about it!! I’d mostly like to find out close to how old it actually is? If anyone has some insight on this I’d love the help! Thank you!

    Is this fossilized honeycomb

    I found this on a river bank in Louisiana. I've had it for years. I'm not sure what it really is. I would like to know though so I decided to ask this forum. Please help if you can. Thanks. compressor (1).zip

    Honeycomb bone structure?

    I thought this type of honeycomb structure was usually indicative of skull bone but this piece looks like it may be some sort of joint?
