Jaden76 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Hi I was hoping for a little help with a fossil ID. I’m not even sure this thing is a fossil. I did my first fossil search yesterday at the W.M. Browning Cretaceous Fossil Park in Frankstown, Mississippi. I found lots of oyster species and a few gastropods, but this oddly shaped rock caught my eye. It’s a flat equilateral triangle about 1cm deep and maybe 5cm long on all sides. If anybody has any guesses I’d love to hear your thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digit Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 I don't know the formation you were hunting in but I see nothing that suggest coral from what I can see. From the texture it looks like an interestingly shaped piece of matrix. There is a very rough symmetry to it but I think that and its somewhat triangular shape are just coincidental. Cheers. -Ken 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
