I found this near Logan utah, I have another “bone” fossil I found there that I would like to post also. A hater told me it was natural who looked at it in person. I just want to know. I am a proud rock hound. This seems odd to me. I found several horn coral fossils and sea life proof near by. This would have been near a lake bonneville shore at some point. The surrounding seems very sedimentary while the inside seems agatized. Following what looks to be an actual foot and not a print seems you can see the actual outline of how a toe was curled into the mud. There looks to be a total of 3 toes but doesn’t look to be all forward facing by Dino prints I’ve seen so maybe big bird or just the way it laid to rest. I need help please!

Hi all, I found this rock with an assortment of fossils in Israel and i am looking to find an answers to some questions i have out of curiosity. Info: Location found - Ayalon Valley River, Israel Mineral - The stone is Limestone with partially metamorphic dolostone The fossils and the imprints are crystalized, if i were to guess i would go with dolomite or calcite crystals. Basically my questions are: What type of fossils are these? From around which period are these fossils and imprints? Is it usual to find the variation found here? What is the best way to clean it? Thanks!

Hi, it's been so long since I have been on the forum. I found something yesterday that isn't necessarily a fossil. Like I said, it has been too long, the last time the forum looked a little different and there was a section for rock classification. If I have done this incorrectly, please forgive me in advance. I just think this rock is very unusual. The color is sort of chalky white and it is very heavy. There are lots of crystal type sparkly things that I don't think I can capture with my camera. I don't think it is a geode because it seems like the wrong color. Thanks so much.
