I had polished a number of these fossil bearing cherts. The were studied in a paper Paleozoic fossils of the Jersey Atlantic plain, by authors William and Ardis Kuehne. It was determined that these cherts were brought by rivers erroding fossiliferous limestones in the new jersey and new york ridge valley areas and ended up here on this beach with the famous Cape May diamonds (clear quartz) I had these tumble polished by my friend Leo Thomas. I am posting some finds. If any one has more detailed experience with identifying bryzoans and other things from the Ordovician to devonian period please help me out. The last two picture show an odd black piece of what?? Thanks Fred Flinstone.
