CrazyDiamond Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Ok, I hope this is a fossil, or something other than a rock. I'm not going to guess as to what I think it looks like, I will just go on the photos since I have no idea what it is. Thank you for your help.

izak_ Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 The texture of the first few pics remind me of coral. Not quite sure though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Dente Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Might be a piece of a rudist. I think Durania has been found in the area. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erose Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Al Dente has the best suggestion so far. The rudist Durania reached some pretty darn big dimensions and this appears to be a classic broken chunk. And as others mentioned it has a very "coral-like" structure.
