Ladyofsteel Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Currently excavating my backyard. We're digging through about 2m of rock (yes it's very expensive lol). I went outside to have a look at the rock and see if I spotted anything interesting. I'm currently studying paleontology/geology at Uni. Anyway I was wondering what people thought of this. It's colour pattern and shape drew me to have a closer look. Am I looking at a concretion? Something else? Just curious. The rocks will be removed and broken up in a few days so last chance to see if anything interesting in them. Found in the Hunter Valley NSW Australia. The area is known for Permian rocks/fossils, though the sites are about 15 minute drives from here. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abyssunder Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I agree with you both. It looks like a concretion.
