OsN Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) Found this in 2012 at a location in Santa Monica Mountains. Size is roughly an inch. No other fossils could be found there. First two pictures are after removing the covering sandstone. Third picture is before. Fourth is a closer shot of the road cut that I did in 2012. Thanks for any help!

Miocene_Mason Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I know little of the areas geography, but It looks simply like a mineral inclusion of some sort to me. “...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...
Fossildude19 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Looks like a piece of fish - scale or bone. Not sure which.

ynot Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Agree with fish scale. 1 Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough."
