Ludwigia Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Looks like turbidite sandstone sediment with a mixture of impressions and casts from gastropods and either bivalves or brachiopods. Possibly from the Pennsylvanian Pottsville Formation. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

If he lives in the Dauphin which is a suburb of Harrisburg, according to this map, it's probably Pottsville Formation, but maybe he's talking about the whole county? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
