MSirmon Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Found this is small item in a road cut west of Mineral Wells TX. The length is about that of a q-tip and difficult to get a good photo of. I'm guessing it is a smashed stem of some kind. Any help would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ynot Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 It may help if You clean some matrix off of it, but I think it is one of those things that is not really identifiable.
