    What type of Rock?

    Fossils

    I have been collecting rocks for a few years. I mostly just have them in bins but sometimes I look through just to see what I have. I have so many that I would like your feedback on what you think I have. I only posted a few pictures but trust me when I say they don't even begin to cover the amount I have
  4. Hey, I need some help in identifying this specimen. I found it by a tree I was digging out in my yard a few months back, and I don't know what it is. I took it to a gem and rock store once, and the guy there put some liquid on it to test it, but he said it wasn't coming back as anything, and he couldn't tell me what it was. Aany ideas would be much appreciated. Thank you .

    Can anyone identify these?

    Can anyone assist in identifying if these are fossils or weathered limestone formations?
  6. Hi so I'm completely new to all of this and what I found was by accident and thankfully I got bored with me and my son's fish tank substrate because I would of just threw this back in the dirt. Anyways I was collecting rocks for the fish tank and brought a bunch home an took the most like ones inside to put in the fish tank and left the rest outside well months later I wanted to change the tanks look so I went through the pile of rocks when I noticed one of the coolest things I ever found then after looking on Google I seen a picture and thought it looked like another rock I found hopefully someone could please tell me what I found and if it's a more of a common or hopefully rare find. I do plan on going to try and find more. Thanks ( the first 9 pics are of what I found then the rest is what I found on Google # 1 # 2 # 3 Google Pics:

    Fossil or rock?

    I found this half floating half not floating in the pacific ocean. Oregon midwest beach area. It feels lightweight but dense towards the back where the curvatures are. I have yet to wash or wet it at all as i am unsure if that would have any negative effects. The rock identification sites I used weren't sure, so I am hoping maybe someone might know here. I can take different images or clean it once someone with expirience tells me how to do so safely.
  8. I keep soil, rocks, tree parts, etc. in jars. This particular jar started with a piece of wood with a small amount of moss on it, and two rocks. This was all put in the jar about 6 years ago. Throughout the years these sea urchin looking things have grown. Any idea what they might be or who would be a better contact?!

    Rocks from British Columbia

    Since the group was so helpful with this post, I thought I would ask again with a couple of rock finds from last week's fishing trip on the Flathead River in south eastern British Columbia. I found several rocks that looked like these two in the next three pics. This rock is about 12" long and the next two pics are the same rock from different angles. The "shards" in the rock caught my attention. Are they fossils? This is a different rock from the previous one, but it had the same type of shards. This next rock contains what appears to contain segmented worms, or cases. The first picture with the ruler is the rock face-on. The following two pics are of the rock from either end. Does this rock contain fossils? Thanks!

  11. Today I drove about 25 minutes to the Kane County Fairgrounds to visit the Chicagoland Gem and Mineral Association Show, this is the 46 year for this show. The show is on Saturday (10a-6p) and Sunday (10a-5p) and it is a really nice show to attend and there is always a long line to the opening and the people keep coming throughout the day. There were 32 different vendors from 13 different states. The vendors had fossils, gem stones, minerals, geodes, etc., something for everyone. Continued on next post.

    Possible fossils

    Hello my 9 year old son loves finding unique rocks, fossils, bones, etc. Can anyone tell me if these are any types of fossils? We’re located in Ruidoso, NM, our property has a lot of sandstone in some areas. Thanks
  15. I found this fossil while we were out in our keep the other day. There are 2 fossils in one. One looks like a bottle cap and the other looks like a walnut
  16. Any ideas on my finds during my rockhouding experience last week in Canada?
  17. dclucker

    Are these fossils? What type

    What is your guess on these?
  18. Hello, This might be a simple/straightforward question, but I'm still curious to know how you guys deal with all the rubble created from fossil preparation.
  19. What's up, everyone?! I'm in Quincy, WA for work for about 6 weeks and would love to do some digging. Does anyone know if there some good spots out here? Also, I don't know if the regulations are the same as at home (New Mexico). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Hope you all are happy and healthy! View from the base of my driveway. Columbia River at dawn.

    Clean coral fossils

    Hello, I'm new. Can someone tell me how to preserve and clean my coral fossils? Vinegar, hot water and soap, none of that works. How do I keep the black off of them? And should they be kept outside and watered regularly with the hose? Any information would help. I have been collecting fossils for 21 years now and just realized I have a wonderful hobby. I love rocks. Thank you so much.
