I found this rock in a middle Tennessee creek. (Mississippian, St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone) I thought it had a brachiopod imprint, but haven’t seen one with such a deep, almost rectangular indentation on one side. Any thoughts?

I found this little rock in the creek that borders my property several weeks ago. (Mississippian, St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone) For some reason, it is one of my favorite finds thus far. Is it a brachiopod embedded in a piece of coral or sponge?

Here is another rock from a middle Tennessee creek. (Mississippian, St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone) It is full of tiny brachiopods, bryozoan bits and maybe a few other fossils. I would like to have the area circled in red identified.

I found this rock in a middle Tennessee creek this morning. (Mississippian, St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone) I would like to know if it is some type of fossil? If not, which type of rock/mineral is it? I’ve seen somewhat similar rocks around here, but nothing quite like this one.

Here is another rock which I found in a middle Tennessee creek. (Mississippian, St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone) This one also has a lot going on within it. There are several fossils I’d like to have identified, but am most curious about the area I circled in red. This rock had a lot of algae (or moss?) growing on it. Is the area which I circled even a fossil?

I found this rock in a middle Tennessee creek. (Mississippian, St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone) What is the area circled in red? It almost has the shape of a large tooth, but not the texture. Is it fossilized coral?

I found this rock in a creek in middle Tennessee. (Mississippian, St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone) @Bobby Rico Using your iPhone macro lens tips, I was just now able to magnify an area of this rock which I’ve been wanting to know more about for a while. (I wasn’t aware of the zoomed-in magnifying technique, so thanks for posting!) I’m thinking it is a cluster of three crinoid stems?

I found this rock in a creek in middle Tennessee. (Mississippian, St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone) It caught my eye because there appeared to be a hole in the rock. After getting it out of the creek and cleaning it a bit, I’ve noticed the “hole” is actually an indentation in the rock with several raised lines around it. I’m wondering if it could be a crinoid? Also, the other side of this rock had another area I found interesting. Any thoughts on what it could be?

When we purchased our home, this large rock was one of many in a rock garden. I have always liked the unusual look of it. There are several brachiopod fragments and what I believe to be crinoid stems and imprints in it. I would like to know which type of rock it is and how the crinoid stem crystallized?

I have previously posted pics from this large hash plate, but didn’t post any of the areas pictured here. (I thought it was just part of the sediment.) Now I’m wondering if these could actually be fragments of the trilobits which were previously identified in other areas of this hash plate. Or possibly some type of thick shell?

Hi, I’m hoping someone will tell me whether or not this rock has a fossil imprint? Or are the grooved lines running through the surface just natural weathering? The rock was used as a stepping stone in my yard in middle Tennessee, which is Mississippian with St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone.

Since today is our anniversary, my husband indulged me by spending the day hunting for fossils with me in the creek surrounding our property. (Mississippian, St. Louis Limestone & Warsaw Limestone) We found several little things, including this rock which I initially thought was a concretion. On closer examination, it appears to be some type of fossil. Can anyone identify it for me? Thanks.
