Found another suspected Cretaceous mammal tooth from the Aguja Fm. I've made my way to the fine matrix. This tooth is about 1 mm in length; I have no idea how I managed to find it. I unfortunately broke part of the root putting it back in the gem case I chose to store it in (after taking the pics). :shakehead:

 

@jpc, what about this one? Feeling slightly more confident...

yup.. premolar, but that is all I can say about it.  Premolars can be difficult if not impossible to ID to genus.  Congrats.  Nice find.
