5-9-22 Lower Silurian Red Mountain Formation- Dalton, Georgia
Nimravis posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Today I made a quick stop to a very small exposure of the Lower Silurian, Red Mountain Formation that is found along Dug Gap Battle Road in Dalton, Georgia. It is a nice place to stop for a few minutes. One of the nice things about this site, is the area where I park my car ,which is across the street.

Brrrrrrrr!!!!!! I have it marked down only as "Cystoid?" and it may well be. The hexagonal patterned bit down the edge of the rock including the smooth shell like piece is 2.2 cm long. Bad picture.
