Is This A Fossil?

Recommended Posts

i found this in the leigh area of the north island of new zealand. according to geological maps the are is made up of young sedimentary rock. i was scouring the base of some layered cliffs (like a steeper version of lyme regis), the rock looks and feels sedimentary. o found numerous rocks like the one in the photo, they seem to have some kind of plant debris fossilised in them. i need to know if the objects in the photo are indeed fossils or not. one rock i picked up (pity i left it behind) had some stuff on it that looked remarkably like leaves and twigs. any help would be appreciated, thanks!
