Could anyone help with identifying these fossils found at Turimetta Beach NSW?
ParasauroLoafers posted a topic in Fossil ID
My partner randomly suggested we go fossil hunting at Turimetta. I've never been fossil hunting and I was surprised by how much we actually found. I haven't uploaded pictures of everything we found bc it's mostly just plant matter that I've managed to find similar pictures of in other forums. I'm curious to know if the rusty-orange coloured ones are anything. Was really exciting to find them when carefully splitting rocks in half! There's also a tiny ball shape I found when I split open a rock and it almost looked like a tiny soccer ball or pine cone because of the lines in it. It didn't show up quite as clearly on camera sadly. And there's another rock with a cylindrical shape in the side of it. I thought that was very interesting so I took lots of angles. Thanks in advance for your help!

Found several of these on a beach in Grand Marais, MN on Lake Superior. The light colored part is a bit rougher feeling and the red/maroon knobs or nodules are quite hard and smooth and raised. I can’t find anything on them…someone mentioned in another forum possibly Rapakivi Granite or Granite Mica Schist but I think they seem a bit different than the images I saw of those. The largest one has a few tiny pockets of crystals. Thoughts?

Hi, found this fossil on the shore of Lake Erie, about 4 km east of Rondeau Park. What types a possibly period it's from. My son is taking it to class. Cheers

Can you help me ID this fossil found on the north shore of Lake Erie, near Port Dover Canada? Thank you! It’s about 1.5” across.
