Strange Rock Patterns

Recommended Posts

So a family member of mine found a large bolder in an area that has been known for having some fossils of fish and tracks. It doesn't look like anything but the patterns are odd enough where I can't determine if they are fossils or just mineral marks. Any help is appreciated!

What you think is a fish (which does superficially look like one) is likely due to a darker mineral which has stained the rock there, maybe hematite.
