Jon5 Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Hello I found this fossil (I think?) on the beach of Lake Huron. It is weird they are two stripes but when I zoomed in it appears there are "fringe like" items on the edges. It's weird because the brown lines are shiny. Any help in identifying if this is a fossil and perhaps how old is greatly appreciated! Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon5 Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 The longer line is about 1 & 1/8 inches long by 1/8" wide, the smaller one is an inch long by 1/8" and the overall rock is 2 &1/2" long by 1" wide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 I'm somewhat suspicious that this might be something man-made in weathered and waterworn concrete. It doesn't look at all like the type of sedimentary rock one would expect to find on the shore of Lake Huron. Exactly where was it found? Could you perhaps post somewhat sharper photos?

Jon5 Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 You may be correct in that it is something manmade. I thought it was weird for them tb be parallel like that. I've attached some more pictures including the backside of the rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Thanks for the extra photos. I still don't know exactly what it might be, but I'm pretty sure that it's not a fossil.
