Gen. et sp. indet. Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Silicified specimen from Jurassic/Cretaceous/Paleogene marine sediments of Małopolska region, Poland. From secondary deposit, so precise age and locality unknown. Similar to a humerus, e.g. of a turtle. Or is just a sponge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWGeoFan Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Do you have a magnifying glass or a loupe you can hold up to the camera so we could get a closer up photo? If so take photos of the ends.

Macrophyseter Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 If its a fossil, then I'd say bone. It doesn't seem porous enough to be a sponge to me. If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifbrindacier Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Could you hammer that crack, maybe more of it could be shown, and take photos of all the faces ? If it's a fossil and if it's Jurassic or Cretaceous, it could be a worn piece of Rudist shell, sometimes their shape look like bone.
