FossilHunterStan Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Hello, I found the following specimen at Beaumaris today. It has a bone like shape ....looks like the end of a long bone, but it's hollow. Can anyone assist with an identification. Thanks, Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesuslover340 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 It would seem to be geological in origin; not fossil. But do keep looking! Beaumaris is known to have fossils! I would recommend looking at a few books or guides that might have some photos of fossils found there to train your eye. 1 "Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another."-Romans 14:19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Mud Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I agree, looks like a rind from a concretion. Could be an iron ore like limonite. The flat face could be a natural joint in the rock. Some important fossils have come from this location so keep your eyes peeled! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 (edited) I agree with the others. Some examples of the Beaumaris local fauna could be seen here . Your specimen might be an ironstone structure. excerpt from here Edited June 12, 2017 by abyssunder 1 " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.
