    Lee Creek Micro Finds

    Going through some Lee Creek micro matrix from the Aurora Fossil Museum. Here’s some of my finds so far!
  2. Frightmares

    Aurora Micro Fossils

    Got a couple finds from my Lee Creek micro matrix that I could use some help IDing. I’m assuming the first one is some sort of ray or fish tooth. 1. 2.

    Rhincodon tooth? Aurora, NC

    Going through some Lee Creek micro matrix from the Aurora Fossil Museum, and I found what I believe may be a Rhincodon (whale shark) tooth. What do you guys think?

    Yorktown Formation Hexanchus griseus Tooth

    From the album: Fossils

    This is a 1.6 inch blue-enameled Hexanchus griseus (aka gigas) from the famous Lee Creek mine. It is from the Pliocene Yorktown Formation sediments.

    Yorktown Formation Seal Jaw

    From the album: Fossils

    One of my favorite Lee Creek finds, a nice seal jaw with 5 teeth. This must have been a fairly young individual because there is almost no wear on the teeth.

    Large Lee Creek Mako/White Shark

    From the album: Fossils

    This is my largest mako (now considered an extinct white shark). It measures 3.16 inches and was found in the Lee Creek Mine Pliocene Yorktown Formation.

    Large Hemipristis serra Shark Tooth

    From the album: Fossils

    This is my largest Hemipristis tooth. At 2.001 inches it just barely gets me into the 2 inch snaggletooth club! I found it in Yorktown Formation sediments in the Lee Creek Mine, North Carolina.
  8. I’m going through my collection of unknowns, and came across this little guy. It is a small, ornate vertebra collected from the Pliocene Yorktown Formation at the Lee Creek Mine in North Carolina,, USA. Scale in the photos for size. Bird? Snake? Other? thanks

    6 gills or 7 gills? Cow shark upper

    Cow shark upper tooth. Hexanchus or Notorhynchus? Cow shark upper teeth baffle me Pliocene Yorktown Fm, Lee Creek Mine, Aurora, NC, USA. The foam square is 1 inch/2.54 cm Any thoughts or wisdom appreciated

    Brachycarcharias?

    I found this “sand tiger” tooth in the Miocene Pungo River strata within the Lee Creek mine (Aurora, North Carolina). It does not resemble any other lamniform teeth that I have from the mine, but it does remind me of Brachycarcharias lerechei, an Eocene species. I was thinking it might be reworked. The tooth is 26mm in length, with “wrinkles” on the lingual face @MarcoSr @Al Dente Thoughts?

    Tiger shark tooth

    From the album: Sharks

    The tiger shark is still around today. Their unique teeth are very good at cutting through tough turtle shell - their favorite prey. Their teeth also happen to work on about anything else that can fit in their mouths.
  12. I could not find the date I found the attached amber from Lee Creek (about 26 trips). Had misplaced it (in one of my Miscellaneous bins, instead of one of my Lee Creek bins), but finally located it and is 4 inches long and 3 inches wide and a little over an inch high. I wonder how many, if any, inclusions could be inside?
  13. ThePhysicist

    Whale shark tooth (2)

    From the album: Lee Creek

    Rhincodon cf. typus Pungo River Fm., Aurora, NC, USA a minute tooth from the biggest fish in the sea - the whale shark. Being filter-feeders, their teeth serve no known function and are considered vestigial.

    Physogaleus contortus

    This specimen was found in micro matrix purchased from the Aurora, North Carolina Fossil Museum. Description: Teeth are very similar to the genus Galeocerdo with finely serrated, long, thick and warped crowns; pronounced notch, small serrations on heel of distal side. Undulating margin and fine serrations on mesial edge. U-shaped root with a prominent protuberance on lingual face and transverse groove (Fig. 5.10). Physogaleus contortus differs from the genus Galeocerdo in having very prominent and bulging root with the deep notch, and a much more erect crown in lateral view.

  15. Greetings again Thisis a second vertebra also found at the Lee Creek Mine (aka Aurora) in Yorktown spoils. It is 50mm in length, rather porous and very light. I was thinking bird, but thought I'd get some other opinions. Any ID suggestions? The photos in order are: "bottom", "top", "side", end 1 and end 2
