MrBones Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Hello, I found this fossil on Jebel Hafeet, Al Ain, UAE (United Arab Emirates). There are many numulites in and around this fossil (Eocene to Miocene). It appears to be some sort of bivalve, it was difficult to capture the shape, I hope you guys can make something of it.

Rockwood Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 It appears to be an internal mold of one valve of a bivalve. There may be enough notes left for someone to guess the song though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifbrindacier Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 I'd vote for a bivalve internal cast, but i'm not able to go farther.
