erose Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Looks like the worn away section thru some sort of clam or oyster. Beyond that it would be hard to ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herb Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I don't think it is fossils since the one bisects the other one at a right angle, but could be wrong.

TyrannosaurusRex Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 It is a fossil. I found it from an area where there are lots of shells. I found in a small canyon like area. It seems like there are gastropods in every single rock you look at. Lots of marine life as well. Thanks for all the thoughts posted on here!

jgcox Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 would love to see pics from all sides. Just because it was found in an area where other fossils are found does not mean that it too is a fossil. Like Herb said the pink lines intersect at 90 degrees and appear geologic. Also the hole on the left side appears too symmetrical almost like it was drilled. It might be a septerian nodule or a geode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auspex Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Were it mine, I'd put on my safety goggles and whack it a good lick, to see if the un-weathered interior might reveal something recognizable.
