Hello,
Occasionally, when I am out prospecting for gemstones or minerals I stumble on some unique fossils that I include in my personal collection.
Recently, I stumbled on a very large unique find that I believe is a fossil and am requesting assistance/advice on how to handle, if that is the case, for proper recovery if applicable.
Location: Glacier WA USA, very close to the Canadian border,
in a dried portion of a creek bed - up against the sides walls-banks. located under a tree stump.
Approx size: Uncovered Specimen in photographs resembles the size, approx, of a large human torso
Materials surrounding the specimens: Many small fossil bones
Please note that I only removed enough material (all mixed - nothing attached) to see if it will help with ID and so on.
Thank you!
