Hello all, I am working in western Washington and have been hitting the beaches. I think I have found some petrified palm or limb cast of degraded palm. Any input is appreciated. I will be shipping some things back home and would like to have other eyes on it. Thank you all in advance. The last photo is trying to show the wood texture.

Hello all. Noob here. I’m Scott in east Texas. My stepfather unearthed this petrified palm bulb? caudex? while clearing some land a few years back in Trinity county Texas and I’m having trouble finding other examples of it and it was brought to my attention today that given how intact it is and the size it may be a bit rarer. I’ll apologize for only the one pic atm as the rock is actually at our other place. It’s ~10-12” in diameter and ~12-14” tall and I’d guess ~70lbs or a bit more. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

This piece of chert is about 10 millions years old that was found east of San Francisco, CA in volcanic and lakebed deposits. What are the 0.3 to 0.6mm wide tubes- palm fiber?

I posted not great pictures of this on here before. The last time was with some shark teeth as I found it with them in Florida between St. Augustine and Ponte Vedra beach. I does not feel like stone and although somewhat porous, it is extremely hard and has some weight.
