Fossildude19 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Welcome to the Forum. I've never heard of Deer Pond in PA. I have heard of Deer Lake, though. Your finds of gastropods and Spiriferid brachiopods look very similar to the Devonian Mahantango Fm. finds from Deer Lake.

Jeffrey P Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I agree with Tim. Looks like Deer Lake material. I visited there 6-7 years ago. Brachiopods and bivalves were very abundant. That shale piece with the ferns looks like St. Clair material. Did you find it as float material there? Congratulations on your finds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyB Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Jeffrey - There are many localities around north eastern PA with ferns like that, so probably not St Clair. Especially as that site is now closed to collecting. Chuck - welcome to the forum and congratulations on your devonian and carboniferous finds. I probably live within half an hour of whatever sites both finds came from. If you like fern fossil material, look up some posts on Centralia where you can still collect ferns with the distinctive white pyrophyllite.
