pambosk Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 here is something that looks interesting. It has a color that resembles rusty iron, yet it is not attached to a magnet. It is a small oval shaped object that has 2 'tubes' coming out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoast Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Possibly an ironstone/siderite concretion around a burrow. Ironstone is not magnetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I agree with it being a concretion. Most iron oxides are not magnetic. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abyssunder Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 It looks like a hollow ironstone concretion like the one below (photo 16), but with two openings.

Plax Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Am seeing phosphatized burrow structure but tough to say for sure. Fifth pic from top looks like it has some surface ornamentation. Any chance of an if focus close up of that area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
