Oxytropidoceras Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 For some examples of what you found, go look at Iron-oxide Concretions in the Tibooburra concretions web page at: http://brovey.yolasite.com/resources/Concretions.pdf Thanks to doushantuo for posting this in the "dinosaur egg ?" thread at http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/73222-dinosaur-egg/ Yours, Paul H.
