CBOB Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I was able to get out one day this March and collect some Mazon Creek nodules from Pit 11. I found all these as they were and all of them were weird enough to keep. Any help with ID's on any of them? Even if some aren't fossils I thought they were at least unique compared to the many solid dud nodules you find with the freeze/thaw process. Thanks! 1. 2. 3.

CBOB Posted March 29, 2017 Author Share Posted March 29, 2017 That's what I was leaning towards with some of them too. But then is just unique mineralization? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I would imagine that some are just mineral staining, and some may be something that was too far gone when it fossilized or didn''t fossilize properly? Wait for more of the Mazon guy's opinions, though.

GeschWhat Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 With the exception of the triangular one, I would say coprolites as well. Lori www.areallycrappystory.com/fossils www.facebook.com/fossilpoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBrian Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Ever hear someone say "I didn't find {poop}" when they came back from hunting (fossils, animals, etc)? Well, you did! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- John I had a friend once, but the wheels fell off.
