Hi folks, Let me introduce myself. My name is anita and I'm from the Netherlands. Two weeks ago I went for a walk with my little son (he is facinated by fossils) at the ENCI-quarry in Maastricht, Netherlands. He has found a total of two "wierd" stones or fossils and we would like to know what they are. Fossil number 1) This stone had a wierd shape. We thought there might be a fossil in here. When I smashed it open at home there was a petrified ball in this stone? We found this stone along a marl/limestone quarry. Fossil number 2) It looks like there is an imprint of a fossil in this stone. Could this be a print of a piece of branch/wood or a belemnite? We found this stone on the footpath. One problem: of both fossils I do not know the geological era. We are very curious to hear your opinion Kind regards. PS, here is the link to a website about the ENCI area in English. Maybe this helps.
