Michele7 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Hi! I found this a few years ago and due to the texture snd shapes, I believe it is a fossil but not certain. I asked an archeologist but he thought just a rock that formed in cracks of other rocks. That did not ring true to me with all the shapes plus he was not a paleontologist. However, I’ve looked at many images of fossils and cannot find anything similar. Anyone else? Atttached photos from every angle. Any information would be greatly appreciated!

FranzBernhard Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Probably strongly limonitized siderite (ironstone) or pyrite/marcasite concretion. Last two pics possibly show the "fresh" core. The knobby surface points more towards former pyrite/marcasite than siderite. Franz Bernhard 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lousde Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I agree, this is a mineral, not a fossil, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
