This fossil was found on a Gold Coast beach in 2019. I'm thinking Pliocene as it's like most of my beach fossil finds. It's a curiosity as it has some crystals inside the carapace. Any thoughts on this? Thankyou!

Hi all I just joined up today. I found something that I can not work out. I was walking along a dry creek bed in central Queensland Aus and found what looks like a piece of petrified wood encased in rock. How did this happen? Why didn't it burn up? Any ideas?

Found some great fossils with the family today in Central Queensland , braved a dust storm but was worth it. They are all of Permian age in the Tiverton formation which is marine sediment. If someone can give me some exact IDs that would be great. More photos in comments

A few of the fossils I have found in the Coalfeilds Central Queensland ,Australia. All are of Permian age and from a terrestrial environment, I'm unsure of the species of plants. Hoping to find more in the future.

Hi, First time post of this site so hopefully I’ve made it correctly, seems to be heaps of knowledgeable/passionate people here. Just wondering if anyone can indentify this for me? It looks like Fossiled pieces of bark. It’s approximately 60cms long, 25cms wide and 3cms thick. In three joining pieces. I found it near a quarry in Ipswich Queensland Australia that is mostly shale and contains Triassic marker plants such as Dicroidium. Any help would be appreciated.
