Kane Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Looks to be a brachiopod impression. Any further details on where it was found might assist in a more precise ID. 2 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Welcome to the Forum ! Considering that in the lower part of the picture might be a crinoid columnal in transverse section view, the brachiopod imprint would be a good guess.

Ridgehiker Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Yes a 'Rhynchonellid' brachiopod. Cloquet, Minnesota! I have relatives there. Young ones and old ones ( fossils themselves). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossiling Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 A bit of advice: if you are trying to find an identification for a fossil, please note the following: Specfic area where you found the fossil. (E.g. State won't do. There are some places where the formation is very diverse, so it's better to use to the nearest mile/ km) Geologic age, if known. Size. It's better to use rulers, since nobody but you knows the size of your hand/remote control/lighter/whatever. Keep looking! They're everywhere!
