Samurai Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Location is in Missouri The area is dated to the Pennsylvanian most likely Raytown, Wyandotte Limestone Formation At this pile I hunt at there are many concretions, but none exude the blue coloring as they are mostly black and much smaller. I am not 100% sure these are fossils but these are the only weirdly hued fossils I have found there. I have found a few teeth from Eugeneodontida, Horn corals, Crinoids, Brachiopods, Nautiloids and petrified wood from the area. I do not have any measuring tools that are not wood when I took these pictures. I apologize and hope this could be a decent size reference.

Coco Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Hi, If you don’t want to take your rule to the field, I advise you to make one on cardboard and use it on the way out. This isn't very complicated to do, and I admit that like probably many other TFF members, I will not compare your tool size images with the size of your fossils.

Coco Thanks for the response, I never thought of that way and will do that in the future. I thought it was a good idea to include a size reference for those more inclined 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I think copper compounds are often responsible for the color blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
