willtexas07 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I am curious as to what the may have made the impression fossil I found today. Also, I found a rock that seemed totally out of place. It smells like asphalt, is it? Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willtexas07 Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 Is the imprint possibly of protocardia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Hey-hi, Can not help with the imprints, but the other does look like a lump of tar. Break a small piece off and see if it will burn. Asphalt/tar is a product of oil and will burn and smells really bad when it does. Tony Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough."
