Fossildude19 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Where abouts in Ontario are you finding your fossils? I agree, some sort of gastropod.

ShanniElle Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 My boyfriend works at a rock quarry near Orillia which is part of the Huron Region of Central Ontario and he brings them home! He said that he has seen some before years ago that were HUGE and looked like bones...I told him if he ever finds another like that to take a picture and try to bring it home or save it!

Tidgy's Dad Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Bring everything home. Unlikely to be bones as this stuff is seemingly Ordovician, but these fossils are great! 2 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peat Burns Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 As @Tidgy's Dad said, bring it all home. As I like to say, "they don't make 'em anymore". That quarry could have some real goodies. Most of the quarries are difficult or impossible for fossil collectors to get into anymore... you have an inside man to get you stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
