jpc Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 I just posted these last week, but what they heck. An oreodont skull as found. And a small mammal skull (maybe) as found. No after shots yet, as they are both in plaster jackets for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frozen_turkey Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Ill give 10 brownie points to who ever can guess what this in situ fossil is!

jpc Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Archaeocidaris brownwoodensis. All you can see are the spines (which are broken in this pic). Intriguing... do you have an after picture of this? As for the "guess the fossil" post, I see an Estwing hammer, but I don't think that's the right answer. A broken concretion... and...?

Well the guy that was with me said it was a mostly complete stromatolite. Im not totaly sure and he seemed to know what he was talking about and im not experianced with the fauna around there. We were also in a area that used to be a shallow see in the LC period. So i assumed he was right, but im getting a vibe here that he might be wrong?!?!?!?! And sorry i dont have after pics. The thing was too heavy to carry back a mile to the cars. But if anyone is intrested in collecting it i can give you directions to its location!!!! -frozen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoffy Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Found this Wenesday in the Peace. I quite sure it is a Mammoth ulna. Attached a photo of it partially cleaned up I think I've got 95% of it. It was a good day. I forgot to take a photo of it before I started digging around it. only a small part was above the sand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
