Miocene_Mason Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Look kinda like Paleozoic sharks teeth, but I'm gonna do some research before I can say that confidently. “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I think they are concretions, but a better picture of the broken area of the one on the edge may change that opinion. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough." My Fossil collection - My Mineral collection My favorite thread on TFF.

Miocene_Mason Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Area is Carboniferous by the way, just found that out. “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ynot Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Sorry but the new pictures did not change My opinion, they are concretions. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Rockwood Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Still with you. The small pit in the center, combined with the lack of them in the matrix being the indicators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izak_ Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 May have fossils inside, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 True, but keep in mind that the percent that do is usually low, and the percent of those that are readily identifiable isn't good either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
