Hey folks, this is my second post attempting to identify a potential fossil. The last time members confirmed I had found a 350 million year old horn, coral fossil. Thrilling!potential fossil #2 is a very interesting looking rock. I recently picked up in Sequatchie Valley Tennessee. The more I looked at it the more I started to see a potential mandible, fossil or possibly teeth. Please review the pictures and let me know what you think probably seen one two mini PBS documentaries. Lol

The formations in the Sequatchie are far too old to contain a mandible of any kind. That looks more like calcite inclusions to me. There are some nice Ordovician fossils to be found in the valley however.

Is there a such thing as too many PBS documentaries?  I agree that it's not a mandible, though.

My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs.
