Tales From the Shale Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Here are some of the fossils I acquired in a shale roadcut I was told about thanks to @prem. These are ordovician in age, and I have to say it was difficult to collect them due to the fragility of the surrounding material. Ive identified most of my finds, however there were these unusual pill like outlines I wasn't familar with. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minnbuckeye Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 i enjoyed your finds, especially the light colored graptolites. The ones found locally are always dark colored. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrangellian Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 (edited) Nice ones! Fair bit of variety there. I think I see a small keychain type there at the bottom of the group shot. Edited June 26, 2022 by Wrangellian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
