MattReady Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Hello, I just found your site after locating a bone on the beach. If you guys could help me out by telling me what marine life this belongs to that would be awesome! Thanks, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Looks modern. Have you tried the flame test? Hold a flame to it. If it burns or gives off a burnt hair smell, it is modern. Can we see pictures of it laying flat on a well lit surface? Front and back, top, bottom, right, and left.

Fossildude19 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 What about where it was found? Ontario is big, and beach is vague. Also, did you try the flame test? @Harry Pristis Cropped ,enlarged, and brightened: Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

MattReady Posted August 17, 2021 Author Share Posted August 17, 2021 Sorry, It is from Nova Scotia at Hunts Point Beach and no I haven’t tried the flame test yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
