kozmik frakture Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Examining a piece of slate that I had split, I came across what I thought were some crystal formation & veins. Checked it out under a low power stereo dissecting microscope & I started thinking that this might be fossil remains of pollen & small stem or some other plant parts. Put the sample under my compound microscope with a digital camera. Attached are some photos. All are at 100x with overhead oblique lighting. To make this more interesting, I don't recall where I "captured" this rock. I would thing somewhere relatively local, central Maryland, south central Pennsylvania. Sure would appreciate some thoughts & comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izak_ Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I have a feeling this will turn out very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Terrestrial or aquatic fossils? Reminds me of an algae (probably way off) "Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe" - Saint Augustine"Those who can not see past their own nose deserve our pity more than anything else."
