sturdevanth Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I found this in a creek bed in the Ozarks. I have found multiple Ordovician fossils.

It has layers like something biological formed it but I have yet to find something that matches this pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
