Raggedy Man Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Sure looks like a manzon creek concretion. It has to be opened in order to see what it is or if it's anything at all. Mny of these concretions are blanks or the preservation was so poor it degraded over time. ...I'm back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 I say iron concretion. See what the experts say. That's what Mazon Creek is known for. Only one way to find out.
