chemistographer Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Hi everyone, I just got to spend a couple days looking for fossils at Lake Michigan and came across a few that I couldn't identify. In addition to loads of Petroskey stones and Charlevoix stones, I came across the attached rock. Any thoughts on what may have been captured here? The stone is about 4 inches across at the longest (top to bottom in the figure). Location: Charlevoix, Michigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Saunders Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 commonly called fossil hash stones in my area. Sometimes put in a rock tumbler and come out nice, but they may break if not done separate from hard stones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
