Wayfarer Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Found these last weekend in a marine layer (I believe Paleogene) in Northwest Colorado. There were also numerous shells and turtle scutes laying around. They are a porcelain-like (on one side), navy blue and all diamond shaped. They were all found within 15 feet of each other and I saw nothing else like it out there. There were also 8 other broken pieces as well. Any ideas?
