Braedon22 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Live in NSW Australia and was wondering if there are any good fossil sits near Sydney I could collect fossils from. Very into them and want to get started up, so any information much appreciated. Thanks Also found these rocks and would want some identification to see if they are fossils. First one found at Newcastle and second and third near Wollongong. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Welcome to the Forum. The first item looks like a modern snail/gastropod operculum. The others look like plant fossils to me. 2 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
