Misc item from Brownwood area

Recommended Posts

A co-worked of mine has a deer lease near Bangs, Tx (just west of Brownwood).  He says the lease is full of very large rocks that have fossils embedded in them and while out this past weekend, he found this item.  He sent me a photo knowing I love hunting fossils but this is way out of my knowledge base.  I have never been out to the Brownwood area to hunt fossils but after hearing about what he's seen, it's definitely on my list of places to hit now.  

 

Based on what I've learned, it appears the lease sits in the Thirfty and Graham formations but I cant say that with 100% certainty.  Anyone know what it might be and is this something that's found up north on the lake spillway?

 

Thanks in advance

David

I'll third that! Looks to me like a horn coral that got a little squished in the process of preservation.

I like crinoids......
