harralhoward Posted February 5, 2022 Author Share Posted February 5, 2022 These pictures are a little higher resolution and I hope you will agree that it’s a faucet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a faucet I would install in my kitchen. This appears to be some intriguing erosion, but I see no evidence of fossils in this rock. 1 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahnmut Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Hi and welcome to the forum! Did you mean a facet, like in bone-facet? I think what you have got there is a piece of Karst-eroded limestone, these account for a great percentage of the pseudo-bones people ask about on the forum, the similarity can be astonishing. Nice rock, but sorry, no bone. Best regards, J Try to learn something about everything and everything about something Thomas Henry Huxley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 It looks as if there may have been sandstone interfingered with the limey material. That may account for this type of weathering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I agree - not a fossil.
