Tidgy's Dad Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Fossil tabulate coral, I think. The white bits are where the coral fossil has eroded away leaving the matrix that had infilled the corallites sticking out. 8 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend.

The little rods joining the polygonal corallite moulds on the top are where the matrix has filled the pores between the corallites. 5 Tarquin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 I agree with the others. lt looks like a favositid coral to me also, something in the line of Pleurodictyon I had in my collection from Germany.

abyssunder Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Thank you dear friend, family! I hope I will be as I was before. Summer is not too far for a good fossil hunting season. Hope I will be near of you 10000 miles away. 2 " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.
