TanyaS Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I have no idea if this is even a fossil, but this looks unlike any rock I’ve ever seen and I’d really appreciate some clarification on what it could be? I’m pretty sure I found it in a river near Scariff, County Clare, Ireland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TanyaS Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 I think you‘re right, I just compared it with images of other slags and they do look very similar, and given the location that seems very plausible Thank you both for your help!
