Chi Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Found this piece washed up on the shore of Lake Erie in Ohio, USA. It's smoothed over from the environment. Any thoughts as to whether this is actually a bone fragment. If so, how would I properly identify it? I'm taking a stab in the dark to say it looks somewhat similar to an ulna/forearm bone.

Fossildude19 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Looks like chert or an ironstone concretion, to me. I don't see any bone texture present. 2 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Chi Posted August 23, 2021 Author Share Posted August 23, 2021 That's what I was afraid of. I know it's hard to tell from being smoothed out in the lake. The fact that it looks hollow through the center made me question it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
