Going through Permian matrix. We have found many teeth and other identifiable microfossils. I have also found many of these metallic looking dark rocks. Are they bone fragments, or partially melted rocks? Thank you.

Would any metal fossils remain after 65 million years?
chrismackey posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Would any metal, specifically colbalt chrome fossilize? I'm asking because I have a book where a time portal opens to 65 million years ago, a character stabs another and the blade breaks off in the dead man's chest, and he gets buried under a mudflow. They find his fossilized remains in the present day, but would the broken blade still be stuck in his bones? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! :) -
I found this very hard piece of rock,unlike the rest of the matrix,I dont know what it is.Its dark in color and is completely unbreakable with the needle(as contrast to the oreodont jaw,which i made a few scratches while prepping unfortunately)

Another saturday morning in Big Brook not the best results but a great day none the less Suggested to me by some folks i've met in the water and i'll pass the suggestion on to other folks here who, like me, are relatively new to Big Brook: I fasten a heavy plastic bag to my belt and when i come across glass or metal or plastic, i put it in the bag and take it out. (i think i found more glass than shark teeth today) we, as a community, should do all we can to make Big Brook cleaner and safer. And if it helps to make the "authorities" more amenable to letting us ke

I found a few tiny fossils in Austin TX Creek. I don't have background in paleontology or geology. I also found a quite a few metal chunks that are non-ferrous (I know this place is not ideal for that, but I thought someone may know).

I apologise if this is a simple find but I asked at the Charmouth Coastal centre and they were not sure of this find. I found it on a fossil hunting walk but I'm not sure what it is. it looks like molten metal. It is very light in weight and has some golden colour to it. It is mainly light grey in colour and dull in appearance. It was found on Charmouth Beach near to the cliffs, towards Lyme Regis. Is it a fossil?Thank you.

I wanted to share some of my projects with all of you. A hobby and side business of mine is creating dinosaur sculptures. I do all different kinds of things aside from dinos too, but to keep it relevant, we’ll stick to the mesozoic Featured in my profile picture is my raptor created from scrap metal used to construct railings. I named him Bambi (ironically not a Bambiraptor). Probably more like Deinonychus, he’s a pretty big chicken, but you let me know what you think. As of now he’s my favorite creation, hence why he’s featured in my profile pic. Still trying to figure out the

I got this as part of an estate. You might notice I've posted a few things from there. Anywhere, I have no idea what this is? Maybe a geologist could hazard a guess. It definitely is a metal of some sort. It has a diameter of 3 inches (7.6 cm). It's thickness is around ⅛" at its thickest point in the center. The edge is sharp enough that this could be used as a weapon in a pinch. I wish I could send you a sidewise photo, too. Notice the shell on the one side. I have another disk like this without the shell. Is this a modern-day man-made creation or was it made by natural forces. Yes, nature so

I have found a large amount of rocks that are strongly attracted to my neodymium magnets. Could this be from iron ore in the rock or does it mean it is a meteor?
