Lake Michigan Fossil


Buffy

Recommended Posts

My new find of the week was located on the shore of Lake Michigan in Glenn Michigan after some rain and high storms. I am needing help in correctly identifying this, i have some ideas but yall know more than i. And really wanting to clean this up. Was going to soak in vinegar but thought id ask before i touched it with anything other than dish water. Thank u

I think this may just be a rock. The horn corals in my area usually display some septum, tabula, and or growth lines. Wait around for other opinions though, I'm not familiar with the area!

Welcome to the Forum :) 

I am not seeing anything diagnostically suggesting a fossil here (although there are plenty of corals in your area). I would say this is more a result of differential weathering.

 

Ah, Jackson g was quicker on the draw!

Welcome to the Forum. :)

 

I agree, that this is a metamorphic rock.
